<DIV><BR></DIV>If you are going to use FRS frequencies, just get FRS radios.
They are cheap enough. Especially for older, non ham licensed people. Less
confusing, also.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Remember, there cannot be ANY other legal method of comms to use the
‘emergency’ rule. If I recall properly, that rule ONLY shows up under amateur
rules, non of the other services, as their radios cannot be otherwise
programmed. <BR><BR>

type="cite">Typen, your last email about programming the Arcshell units was
very much appreciated.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I had unsubscribed from the user forum last week as I found that the
advice given enabled me (I thought!) to reprogram several units without a
hitch. I changed all the channels to the first 16 FRS-approved channels, but
I did not lower the power setting for those permitted only for 0.5 W on the
first iteration as I just wanted to ascertain if I had done things otherwise
correctly. No other program settings were changed before uploading the new
settings to the units. Indeed, the two units functioned OK it seemed until I
tried to use the ‘scanning’ function assigned in the OEM programming to
Channel 16. This had worked under the previous OEM programming. I found that
it would not work on either unit after changing the channels, even though
they could send and receive on all the other channels properly. I want the
scanning facility preserved on all the units so I re subscribed to the Users
Forum in hope of a solution.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I understand from you and your colleagues that this unit is still not
FCC approved and will never be unless certain changes are made and the units
are then officially approved. Rest assured they won’t be given into the
hands of 3 years olds to talk on the beach, but only used briefly and
hopefully rarely in the event of an impending fire disaster in our community
with some frail neighbors who need checking on if cell towers and power
lines are down (which has happened before). I appreciate all you guys’
expert advice and I trust you will still impart whatever guidance needed
here to bring this feature back.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Thanking you,</DIV>
