FRS/GMRS Radios by Max Cooper covers the often misunderstood world of consumer grade FRS/GMRS radios. Often advertised to communicate up to 36 miles, many consumers actually expect this range all of the time. Yet, such long distance is under "optimal conditions" which rarely translates to reality. Covered in this book are: realistic communications distance, privacy, FRS radios, GMRS radios, radio accessories, FCC enforcement actions, and FCC codes related to FRS and GMRS radios. A variety of radios from Midland, Motorola, Cobra and Uniden are compared. If you really want to understand FRS/GMRS radios and get to the bottom of their true capabilities this is a resource for your survival library.
