[chirp_users] A handy web-page for novices
Hello, I would like to say hi to you all and hope I shall learn from this list. I found this web-page that lists 98 frequencies for public access, emergency, maritime etc., as well as frequencies reserved for walkie talkie handsets graded for low power, restricted range and another that seems to accommodate higher transmittion power with options for the antenna.

There is a cvs file which can be imported and uploaded onto your uv-5r using Chirp. The page also has a neat description of the different types of frequencies, worth printing out.
A good manual for the uv-5r can also be accessed here.

NOTE
In the US, those frequencies shown as PMR are actually Amateur radio frequencie. Those and frequencies listed as HAM frequencies require an Amateur radio license to use legally.
GMRS Repeaters also require that you have a GMRS liscense plus permission of the repeater owner to use.
Marine frequencies require license to use.
Many of those limitations are not clearly spelled out on that web page. Be AWARE of the limitations, penalties for unliscensed use can be severe.

What I am not sure of is whether I am allowed to tx on the GMRS list as it indicates 5w.

While there is some interesting thought and discussion provoking information on this webpage please keep in mind that it is from the “survivalist” community. That may not be everybody’s cup of tea so consider the source.
It’s also getting a bit off topic from CHIRP.
