NYCPhil Posted December 15, 2016 Report Posted December 15, 2016 Hello All! I am brand new to the GMRS world. I got myself the a Baofeng GMRS V1 and have been listening a bit. I don't hear too much traffic besides for some little kids playing around. Looks like there are a few local repeaters but I am not hearing much besides for the occasional tone. I have requested permission to use them and heard back from one of them which is the closest which is great! Thanks for all the great info on this site! Logan5 1 Quote

The ham activity in the area is much busier than the GMRS machines. There are a couple of good gmrs repeaters in the staten island area though, just not very busy. -RfMedic Quote
