Nice background music ;) How soon until we get a USB charger upgrade? The old 1.0 USB tip is frustrating to have to remember when my phone and other accessories are all 2.0.
HAM radios can 'listen' to FRS/GMRS freqs., they're just not permitted to transmit on them. In North America, it is ILLEGAL for FRS/GMRS freq. use by HAM radios. So much so, that should a Ham operator transmit on FRS/GMRS freq. with their HAM radio, they could lose their licence AND equipment. The ONLY time it is permitted is during an EMERGENCY, but then one would have to ask HOW a particular HAM radio was capable of transmitting on said freqs., because those freqs. are 'blocked' on 'approved' radios. The same holds true for CB freqs. as well. HAMS are ONLY permitted to transmit on the freqs. assigned to the hobby, in both the USA and Canada (unless its an emergency). Other countries' laws may vary...but so do their licencing laws too. IE. FRS does not require a licence in either Canada or the USA; but GMRS DOES require licencing in the USA, but not in Canada. In North Amerca there are VERY specific rules to what qualifies to use FRS/GMRS freqs. And the rules are quite different for each service; FRS vs GMRS. Power output, antenna configuration, licence and licencing. There's a difference between which licence a radio operator holds vs which frequencies his equipment is permitted to transmit on (ANY radio is permitted to recieve ANY freq., short of restricted ones designated by Gov't, such as mobile phone freqs. or cordless phone freqs.) And FYI, there are ONLY twenty two (22) 'channels' combined between FRS/GMRS; denoted as channels 1 to 22...the '200' claimed is pure BS. As per BCA's website "22 FRS GMRS channels + 121 sub-channels"...NOT channels. They're just 'a tone' the radios recognize to allow or disallow a transmission to be heard. JUST like on nearly ANY decent FRS/GMRS radio. But still ONLY 22 channels (designated freqs.).
what do I do with my hands
