Midland Quality 42-50 Channel, 34-36 Mile, GMRS Two-Way Radio Pairs
General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) is a licensed land-mobile FM UHF radio service
in the United States available for short-distance two-way communication. It is intended
for use by an adult individual whopossesses a valid GMRS license, as well as his or her
immediate family members. Immediate relatives of the GMRS system licensee are
entitled to communicate among themselves for personal or business purposes, but
employees of the licensee, who are not family members, may not use this service.
Any individual in the United States who is at least 18 years of age and not a representative of a foreign government may apply for a GMRS license by completing the application form (either on paper or through the FCC's Universal Licensing System) and paying the license fee. No exam is required. Prior to July 31, 1987, the FCC issued GMRS licenses to non-individuals (corporations, partnerships, government entities, etc). These licensees are grandfathered and may renew their existing licenses. No new GMRS licenses are being issued to non-individuals, nor may existing non-individual licensees make major modifications to their licenses.
The license extends privileges of the primary licensee to include communications with the licensee's immediate family members, and authorizes immediate family members to use the licensee's station(s) to conduct the activities of the licensee. Additionally, the FCC rules allow GMRS licensees to communicate with other GMRS licensees. GMRS licensees are allowed to communicate with FRS users on those frequencies that are shared between the two services. The rules require each GMRS user family to have a license, rather than (as in the case of commercial and public safety land mobile license) authorizing a licensee's employees to use the same license.
