If it does not interest you, then why not stay away from it.
Some people do like it so let it be.
Everything is just fcc with you guys . And who says people want to transmit on your Stupid Amateur Bands. You want to complain about the last thing of radio, especially the CB bands also,,,, but if the skip is running then amateur operators is there first to talk and Shout to the rest of the world.

These are illegal to use unless you have a technician license from the FCC. The license is easy to test for BUT unless you are willing to learn a little about ham radio these will be difficult to use.
If you’re interested in two way radios just buy good quality FRS radios instead from a reputable dealer.

These are very low quality radios. Almost everyone is better off buying a pair of FRS radios. These won’t reach much farther (a quarter mile to maybe a half mile if you’re lucky) and require a separate programming cable and software to set up. Without a radio license there is no legal way to use these- if you want to fly under the radar you could program them on FRS channels but otherwise you’re literally broadcasting the fact that you’re breaking federal law. Granted, it’ll only interfere with stations within a few miles but some of these arrive from China… Read more »

Easy to reprogram for FRS frequency range using chirp. I have pair that work really well with an approximate 1 mile in city (very poor line of sight) range, better range if you add a taller whip antenna. Over all nice radios for price.

You must have an FCC Amateur Radio license to operate these. Otherwise you are subject to a $10,000 fine.
@ABing, I’m not using mine until the SHTF. On that day, my net will be using them to hunt down the enemies of the Constitution. If the FCC wants to volunteer to be live targets, then good for them. Until the SHTF, its all a moot point.

The ad lists the transmit and receive frequency range from 400 Mhz to 520 Mhz. The amateur radio 70cm band is from 420 Mhz to 450 Mhz. You must have a valid FCC amateur radio license to operate on those frequencies. Operating these radios without an amateur radio license is illegal. You face hefty fines from the FCC if you use these radios on the ham bands without a license.

2 watts? That’s crap, ur lucky if they work in ur backyard !
These are the very same thing as the Retivis two-ways that you can get on Ebay for the same price. They WILL get out to over 2 miles with the longer whip antenna. As for FCC rulings, regs, prosecutions? I HIGHLY DOUBT that the FCC is going to dispatch the tens of thousands of agents necessary to track down and ticket the unlicensed users of these. Hell, the larger majority of FCC Tech license (10 year) holders prob a my still don’t know all the functions, rules, regs of operating some of the simplest radios, and overstep THEIR regulated authority… Read more »
