Default RE: How do you get FCC license for Walkie-Talkies

I could be wrong, but I thought I read somewhere (can't remember where) that the FCC was going to relax that enforcement on GMRS radios

Maybe I read it wrong... who knows.

I too tried to apply for a license and became lost on the FCC site and finally just gave up. I only use my radios for hunting, so the chances of an FCC "cop" catching me is slim to none.

I've run several hunder watt linears in the past, and never got in trouble, what are the chances of getting caught with a 2 watt hand held in the woods?


Also, if I remember correctly, with GMRS, only 1 family member needs the license. Up to 4 family members can communicate with you so long as one family member has the license
