There is no such thing as "common law spouse" in California.

Although I do not have the exact provisions to cite right at my fingertips, the FCC regs allow your girlfriend to use her radio "during an emergency [especially when] there is no other way to get through to you!

You misunderstood his question. The "kid" was standing near the husband and the kids voice went over the air, heard by the wife on her radio, and was answered by the wife by radio. I can't imagine there is any violation of anything under these facts presented!

Cite please.

Notarubicon GMRS 700 Repeater is in Southern California near San Bernardino/Rancho Cucamonga

Thumbs up! ? Success!!

Yes! i PM’d you the Channels and PLs for 5 repeaters try me on the strongest: GRMS-1

I’m hete! Charging my EV and having lunch at Rice Chicken!

Where will you post your review?

The Amazon page says: 2-3 watts

Great news: I just used your link to buy one <$30 with sales tax and free shipping to be here September 8th! Any success yet hitting your local repeaters? I may need to take a drive down in my EV and help out! ?

One last question: is the ducky antenna removable so that I can connect it to my rooftop Comet?

One RT System software package works with all of your radios, or...?

They WERE a minicomputer! They were the first serious threat to the IBM mainframe duopoly and foreshadowed that there was a market for the introduction of the Personal Computer a generation later! Of course, only business and government could afford even the minicomputer, whereas the Personal Computer made possible the home market. I still remember where I was the day that I first saw the cover of the January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics:

Stockjock: Is it the same on the P15-UV?

The PDP-11... a mainframe?!? ??

What compensation do you receive from either of them for all of your valuable R&D and marketing services?

Sheinhardt Wig Corporation is owned by National Bemusements, whose majority stockholder is Sherry Redrock!

I bet none of you took SNOBOL like I did!

Not if you are a Proud Boy insurrecting at the Capitol Bldg! ...tortured, that is!?

Maybe: Tone Scanning - you are listening to a conversation on a repeater and the scan stops on the CTCSS or Digital tone that they are using, so that we can program our HT to use that tone to transmit (and be heard) on the repeater. Let me know if the feature actually results in a Tone and if that tone gets you into the repeater. Thanks! Let us know if you can get into a local repeater successfully, as well!

Strange that it shows different draws on RECEIVING!

If you can confirm that this unit correctly SCANS CTCSS, I might just buy one for $26 on your Amazon link, just to get this feature!

Appendix D of the manual: this appears to be Channel 23 for the repeater split frequencies (according to the manual, channel 1 is 462.5625 simplex a/k/a FRS Channel 1). You can change the display to Frequency instead of Channel to confirm the correct frequencies (Menu items 21 and 22). To clarify, if you enter a DPL, you do not have to enter a CTCSS; they are mutually exclusive. RT725 gets pretty raunchy, and I assume that this new 550 will be likewise, so don't have children around when you listen. RT725 was the first GMRS repeater I ever listened to, and I incorrectly concluded that GMRS was the same as CB radio! hahaha
