Still on the first page of my book, so none of this makes any sense. Can't wait to come back and spew acronyms though. See you soon 📻

Last time I turned on my gmrs radio there was chatter on the local repeaters during drive time but otherwise quiet. I never join in because of the quality drop compared to ham. I use gmrs walkie talkie style for camping in places with no cell reception. Easier than forcing my wife to get a ham license.

Gmrs is a separate radio "service" with different rules than ham.
