Hi all, I would like someone to talk to and show me the ropes.

Welcome to the exciting and dynamic world of GMRS!  ... 

One word of warning: Be wary of the trolls here on the forum that tell you that you're doing everything wrong and "if your radio cant transmit 200 miles you should throw it into the trash can" ...   He's just a rheet-hard, and other than him everyone here is pretty cool.

Welcome to the forums. Only people in the Denver area are likely to be able to talk to you because of the distance limitations of GMRS. Your best bet would be to look at the map here to see what repeaters exist in your area and look at the clubs to see which ones are in your area.

yea that’s me. Except I’ve never said anything about distance compared to trash. I have said toss that midland rugged woxoun over priced gimmicky junk in the trash. As well as the h3 hts that have a 50-75% fail rate and anything that needs a firm ware update.   
but I know reading and comprehension may be an issue for some as proofed by people asking super basic questions.  
 

now onto the op.  Since gmrs is for friends and family while doing an activity. Do you have friends or family that you need to talk to while doing something?   It’s not really for chatting with strangers men that call them selves queen.
