So what is the final word on this? Can GMRS repeaters be linked? Or is it against the rules? The more interesting question is, did the rule really need to be clarified in the first place?

A few years ago, President Radio made waves on the CB band with the introduction the RANDY FCC, a handheld with a lithium-ion battery and some features usually found only on the mobiles.

May 17, 2024 TWRS-190 – Ham or GMRS?

We discuss the pros and cons of both the Amateur and GMRS radio services and which one we think is better. We’ll also take some of your comments and questions from our blog and our forum.
Intro :00
Billboard 1:07
Is Ham Radio Better or GMRS? 1:21
Recently someone in our forum introduced a discussion comparing the amateur radio service to the GMRS, and provided a short but interesting take as to why he thought ham radio was the better option. The reasoning put forth was based simply on the fact that while both were governed by rules set forth by the FCC, ham radio had more spectrum allocated to it than GMRS. While it is true that GMRS has fewer channels, is it really fair to say that ham radio is better than GMRS, or could it be the other way around?

Bills Proposed to Allow Ham Radio Antennas in an HOA 1:21
In 2023 a bipartisan bill of particular interest to amateur radio operators was introduced to the United States House of Representatives. Titled Amateur Radio Emergency Preparedness Act, this bill proposed to amend the Communications Act of 1934 to prohibit the application of certain private land use restrictions to amateur station antennas, and for other purposes. What is this bill about, could it pass, and if it does becomes law, how would it potentially impact an amateur radio operator who resides in a deed restricted community such as a Homeowner’s Association?
