Thanks for replying. Aren’t CTCSS/DCS tones for using repeaters? I’m just sitting in my truck holding one radio and trying to communicate with the radio installed in that truck over an FRS frequency. As far as my radios not being GMRS compliant...the BTECH GMRS 50X1 radio in my truck has the FRS, GMRS, and those frequencies outside GMRS licensing. And where I am able to hear transmissions on those “unlicensed” channels, it will not allow me to broadcast on those channels. As far as the Baofeng UV 5R, from everything I have read and listened to as long as I don’t broadcast on the “unlicensed” channels I am not breaking any laws.
