FRS is not HAM radio though.
But the detachable antenna thing is correct.
But in a rural area, I would not be worrying about it.

Problem is that he needs business use. Cannot use ham radio for that.

This is true they can not have a detachable antena. I have not found a single good FRS radio! They have much less range then the makers says it will reach. Min range of maybe 100 yards line of site with nothing between you and the other person.

Get a Ham lic and enjoy real radio.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned with regards to legality, no FRS radio can have a detachable antenna, so that rules out your model all by itself.
