I find this thread interesting, because whenever I've looked into getting my CDM1250 (UHF) into service on the GMRS spectrum, I've come away uncertain whether it's kosher/legal to do so. Right now it's programmed for several local Amateur repeaters in my area but I've got loads of Personalities free.
Is the CDM1250 type-approved for use as a GMRS base station? Isn't the minimum power output too high?
Some of the answers above suggest that it's totally fine, and if it is, awesome. I also understand that some take the "If you don't get caught, why worry" attitude around questions like this, but -- speaking only for myself, and no judgment here -- "you do you," but I don't share that view.
Thanks.
