Which Of The 1 - 14 FRS Channels Do You Use


are you kidding? maybe if you go to disneyland. it's such short range, i rarely hear anyone on there...
 
Years ago I used channel 8 with my MURS/FRS crossband repeater. I also used it for simplex operation. I can't remember my reasoning for picking that channel, though.

I haven't used FRS in quite some time.

OK, I should say that I've only scanned with FRS radios, usually inside. I'm sure a rooftop antenna and a good receiver would expose more.

I can imagine a lot of greasy kid stuff...
 
I rarely use it, it is usually dead, although when I have it on <rarely>, it is on channel 1. It is so short range..try MURS and you will notice a difference.....

I'll have to stream an FRS scan for the forum sometime from my house...it's ridiculous.

I second that, try climbing up on top of a cell tower and tell me nobody is on FRS, in a typical suburban neighboorhood expect annoying and disrespectful little kids to be on just about every channel

    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
