I passed it the first time - I figure the math is my only weak spot - everything else - ok

Slow going this morning.......triple post? ----sorry - still on 1st cup of coffee

Good for you, I won't bother you anyway - the $$ argument goes nowhere with me. (and that's you're, complements of the grammar police)

Admiral, I'll see your admiral and raise you two generals (grol & gmrs)

I missed 3 on the extra......me and decimal points don't see eye to eye sometimes.

I was really on the ball......I thought it was the last weekend of June and missed it entirely - but I am prepared this week with logging software and all set up for.... Next year If I'm still here.

I hate 'repeater gods' --- they don't own or have exclusive rights to any frequency in GMRS. If I put one up on the air, I would expect people to use it with or without permission. I would only intervene if there were CB style trash talking on it.

Since '67 I have had an amateur radio licence so radio is something I grew up with....so, like many of us I, after using expensive Yaesu and Kenwood HTs on ham bands, I was interested in going for a CCR. a UV5R was twice the cost it is now, and still cheaper than other big names. I didn't know what GMRS was except it was another radio service -- When I found my CCR could transmit on those freqs I programmed (no chirp) the radio - but didn't have the license to operate. Not wanting my other licenses being in jeopardy, I got a GMRS license - I still used part 90 radios for it...but rarely transmitted except when using bubble pack toys Now there are CCR's made for GMRS I got a couple of them. Why? Because radios are fun --I don't expect to work any "DX" on GMRS it's both a tool and a toy. Too bad I can't key the flashlight on those CCRs, I could have used it to send morse code.

Where does this 'sad ham' crap come from? I think it's BS from some little mind that couldn't even pass a tech test. This thread IS a troll --- where's the OP?

Not listing my amateur radio gear, too many radios GMRS - 2 bow fangs, a uv5g and a gm21 - and a couple of fake motos (gp-68) I don't need a fixed station for gmrs, the ht's will do it for me. I also don't like those nagoya 771s unless it's for ht fencing --- "En garde"

The Karen Beep has to have a whining or nagging sound to be effective

Not good for a car though

I used to make ground planes by using a SO239 and metal coat hangers - cut to 1/4 wave length and soldered to the center and four holes. Simple but effective old ham radio trick

I have the same problem - even talking with bf - they told me to send the radio back to the seller and get one from them for the OEM software I might as well be talking to my cat. Legacy version does not work (I'm trying to get software for a UV21 for amateur radio) The GM21 OEM software works good but does not recognize the UV21. I'm sick and tired of having to upgrade my systems because MS excec's need new gold faucets in the boardroom bathroom.

Move over Mr. Potatohead!

I have copies of my amateur, GMRS and GROL in my phone for such an incident - in case deputy dawg needs to see them.

Read lines 21 - 23 no mention other than amateur radio

I read the pdf. Nothing about mobile GMRS only amateur radio? Can GMRS be considered "amateur" since it is not job related and still covered by having an FCC license?

Sorry for the use of "they" in the last 'class'

The simple minded "ham" (memorized exams, never understood the rules) might propose license classes The G in GMRS means General so why not have TMRS as "Tech" (low power only and no repeaters) GMRS (full power and repeater 'privleges') GMRS + (walk AND chew gum talking on yer Part 90 bow fung) EMRS (extra class, self imposed importance and can use anything they want on any frequency but YOU can't)* *Quoting Foghorn Leghorn, " That's a joke, son" Again, no ham radio lite on GMRS ----------PLEASE!

OOps didn't read (comprendo) all the OP's post --- maybe a database on a web site you create?
