Jardy,
As a ham for over 50 years, and a retired AF colonel, I praise your gentle guiding of our fellow hobbyist back to the flock. Hear, hear !!

There is no way in the world that these radios are legal on MURS, GMRS, FRS, or CB.  the homepage for this users group clearly states that.  Please do not encourage people to operate illegally on this forum.

Thank you.

Dan murs ,gmrs,, and FRS, have pretty much became cb channels of the FM world.
I really don't think anyone is checking the power output levels on these we use them all the time for hunting mostly murs.
Pretty good idea ,no interference no one cares.
