Retevis RB17A Powerful GMRS Long Range Handheld Walkie Talkies
General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) is a licensed radio service that uses channels around 462 MHz-467 MHz. One of the best benefits of our GMRS radios is that they are compatible with all other GMRS and FRS radios. However, all of our powerful GMRS radios do require a GMRS license from the FCC. A GMRS license is inexpensive and simple to obtain. Simply apply on the FCC website, and you usually receive your license within 24 hours.
High-power GMRS walkie-talkies. It has a longer communication distance than FRS.
You may apply for a GMRS license if you are 18 years or older and not a representative of a foreign government. If you receive a license, any family member, regardless of age, can operate GMRS stations and units within the licensed system.
