Anybody out there own a Motorola T5550 or know about GMRS radios?
Santa left a set of these at my house, and all I know about them is that you push the little button in and talk. According to the manual, channels 1-7 and 15-22 are GMRS channels and require a license from the FCC to use. What's that all about and do these licenses cost money?
If I don't have a license, is it only legal for me to use channels 8-14?
Also, what's the deal with the sub-channels? How do those fit into this?
I appreciate any help you can give a newbie. Thanks.
