Interesting that people don't didn't heard of it .
Please put this into plainspeak.
Why should we be interested? What can this do that isn't already serviced bt FRS or GMRS radios?
I thought we were already restricted to 2 watts?
Its vhf.. 2w vhf transmits further than FRS... Also h can send data packets...
we been using vhf radios for years and its 5 watt radios
Been using VHF for 14 years..I am allowed 2500 Watts PEP(1500 RMS).
So what is the big deal about two watts. That is a marine VHF on LOW power.
You don't need a license for it.Quote:
