FRS: Real-World Family Use Cases


Listen Later

FRS radios aren't long-range or flashy, but they're still one of the most useful family tools you can own.

In this episode of the Prep Comms Podcast, Caleb Nelson (K4CDN) dives into how families actually use FRS today, including:

  • Keeping kids connected in the neighborhood

  • Calling everyone home for dinner without shouting

  • Car-to-car communication on road trips and caravans

  • Staying in touch at theme parks, malls, and campgrounds

  • Why short range and lack of privacy don't have to be deal-breakers

FRS may not be perfect, but it works — and when it comes to family connection, that's what matters most.
