Everyone's most favorite hand held radio is the best.... And not a single sole can change that

check out his new KML lookup.. (Google Earth)

i had one for my RV for awhile was a nice radio until the display decided to go south.

I have one, i actually prefer the Hytera for simplicity.. i paid 375 for the xtl 5000 w/ software and cable.

Not necessarily. I picked up a Hytera HM782 mobile on Ebay last summer for $350 bucks. Best radio i've ever owned and have since picked up a couple PD782 Portables for pretty damn good deal. Keep your eyes out, you can get pretty good deals on the Motorolas as well. Plenty of software on line for either radios so thats a none issue. I love the Hytera Radios.

I've always choose DuraComm Power supplies

I don't think you'll find a better radio for GMRS than a KG1000, unless you go in Pirate mode and go with a Motorola, Kenwood or Hytera..

Yup,, I remember too,, HAMS was the go-to cheap stuff. and it worked

I'd bet half the traffic you hear in any large metropolitan area is not even licensed. Particularly in the Las Angeles basin area. And i would even stretch that to include actual repeaters. I'm even hearing a lot of business using GMRS now, like Motels, Grocery Outlets, Construction Co, Landscaping Companies.. I've had a few landscaping companies try to use my repeater, they are hard to get rid of, they don't care. But when you learn who they are and get in touch with their owner and educate them on the FCC laws they will disappear. Self Policing the GMRS repeater Bands and getting harder and harder, sometimes i just turn it off. Thank goodness for the remote access.

well,, the FCC can have a 'Hay Day' in the Las Angeles basin area. But we all know that aint ever gonna happen

I dont know about being easy.. some folks have a hard time signing up.. I must have helped a dozen people last year navigating the web site(s) to get their license.. Hell, passing the technician test is almost as easy. - Just saying

yup, i just made the comment in relation to privacy (somewhat)

Voice Scramblers works well, especially in the Hytera radios.. But problem with that, everyone needs a like radio. Other problem, if anyone worries about it. FCC Illegal for GMRS. But still quite a few still use it.

ICS controller can be configured to turn up/down via HTML or DTMF. The Bridgecom you refer to is most likely set up with an ICS controller they are plug an play for Bridgecom,, Arcom may work as well but i don't think Arcom can switch via HTML
