Personally, I think you're just acrybaby.
Nope. I'm not crying about it and never have. I don't need any
stinking ham bands. I have fifty-nine channels (actually more) that I
can legally use without any liscence whatsoever.

With a GMRS liscence, I can use sixteen more channels for a total of
seventy-five channels (actually more) that I can legally use without a
ham liscence at all.

And recently, someoe at my house just purchased a new "two way radio"
that gives me an extra FRS channel that doesn't use any of the
standard 14 FRS channels and doesn't use any of te GMRS channel;s, and
is perfectly legal for use in the U.S.

It was even advertised as "use it at sporting events and shopping
malls to stay in contact with your family and friends".and as "two-
watt radio".

I'm not sure what the range is of it yet. I'll test it out when the
weather gets warmer. This radio also doesn't have any way of
monitoring for other people's transmissions before you tansmit.

But you don't need to since it automatically sends a code that ollows
only the people in your group to heaar it, You can't set it to hear
other people's transmissions even if you try to., even if they're on
the same channel.

And it can't be picked up by radio scanners the genreal public uses,
it can't be picked up by frs radios that use the standard 14 frs
channels. It can't be picked up by GMRS radios or ham radios either.
Although I'm sure the hams will try to.

It seems to truly be a radio with your own private lFRS channel.

And yes, it's FCC-approved. So don't give me any of this "you're using
an illegal radio transmitter on frequencies you're not authorized to
transmit on" garbage.

What is the brand, model and FCC ID of this "legal" radio?
Without an FCC ID, it is not legal. I'm curious... I want to look it up.

PL tones are nothing new and anybody can tune into the same frequency and

I communicate telepathically without a "radio" .
But I can't communicate with the people that wear aluminum foil hats ;-(

I asked him for the FCC ID and all that. He never responded. I guess this
radio must not really exist, and he's blowing wind out his backside.

Radio Shack brand.

I couldn't find any model number printed on it itself.

The model number was printed on the box, but the person who bought it
either kept the box or threw it out.

It's VHF or UHF. Big deal. 5 miles range at best. Who are you going to talk
to on your private frequency? hehehe
