Re: [chirp_users] New Daily Build
Well,
It depends on how and how much you are reading...
The last sentence say it must comply with part 95 specifications...
So, yes this radio can comply with part 95 easily...this radio complies with part 90 with much stricter rules.
That's where the fun starts...Depending on how the radio is programmed will make it compliant or not.
If you disable all but the GMRS frequencies and limit the power on those frequencies you can comply..
Now as an emergency radio...All is fair if there is an emergency...
Take a look under radio and pick the repeaterbook for your source and you can load in all the repeaters in your area...

I don't about Marine frequencies but it is illegal to use this radio to transmit on GMRS, FRS or MURS frequencies here in the USA as it is not Part 95 certified.

No problem Jim, I bought these radios for emergency purposes, and I want to load the Marine, and GMRS channels as well as repeaters for my area. I think I can get that done now. I don't have them all loaded yet, I am not used to the interface, but I think I can figure it out. Problem Is, I don't have the right channels with the correct numbers. I will eventually figure it out.
Marine and GMRS frequencies are provided as stock configs under the File menu.

Way ahead of you on that one Bret, and I was able to listen in on some kind of Saturday night HAM party last night. I didn't try to transmit. I don't have a call sign, or a license, but at some point I guess I am going to have to test these. Leo On 2/3/2013 5:53 PM, Bret Hedrington wrote:
