  1. My B-Tech GMRS V1 claims that with software the 8 repeater channel slots can be setup for any repeater frequencies. But being limited to 8 repeaters is limiting for some people. B-Tech was good for the consumer GMRS market because they showed that there was a lot of demand for that type of radio. However, they didn't quite understand how GMRS is used by folks that are past the bubble pack radios. The Wouxun 805 handheld and the new 1000 mobile are probably the best for the power users.
  2. See 95.303 Definitions They are more clear about describing the different stations than Part 90 and the old Part 95 rules. Fixed station. A station at a fixed location that directly communicates with other fixed stations only. The key word is only. as in they "only ever" talk to each other. Keeping the FIXED stations in the rules is for two reasons. 1. To grandfather any from the old (pre 2017) rules. 2. To lower TPO for stations that are likely to use directional beam antennas (yagis). This helps limit all stations to an ERP of around 400 Watts. --------------------- TPO = Transmitter Power Output - what comes out the back of your radio ERP = Effective Radiator Power - what comes out of your antenna
