Anyone using GMRS


Ed,

I have applied here waiting on my call sign also looking for equipment. What kinda rigs are you running?
 
I have a pair of the little junkie HH's ffrom Walmart, and a Relm WHS450b programed with GMRS and 1 Amatuer frequency.
Always looking for more.

The problem seems to be alot of unlicensed users. Hopefully in the future that will be a less of a problem.
 
Yeah, FRS shares some GMRS freqs. Around here it's kids playing with the radio on the FRS. I bought some FRS handhelds for my daughter and son in-law for use while camping and they said even in the woods there's kids playing radio. But that's legal on FRS, so....

I'm unlicensed but the only time i use it is when i am Car to car with my wife or when my son is out playing. Kenwood TK-840's in the car's and in the house. 888's for my son.
I have GMRS/FRS in my scannner and i all most never here any one on it. i did hear some people "kids" i think playing on them 3 days ago but other than that it's quiet. i live in the city. so i would never think its being used that much.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
