Time to get your riding buddies together

Anyone know of a place in the east koots to program a Motorola portable with all the more commonly used freq that the rhyno's and whatnot use?

I don't need the rr's as I already have a radio programmed for those.

I could be wrong but that Motorola is probably UHF only so unable to communicate with the common consumer radios. The Baofeng is dual band.

You might be right. I wasn't sure which band those radios were.

That said this one is pretty much useless to me so does anyone need a radio just for their local RR channels? Comes with a 110 volt and a 12 volt charger and a pelican case. I'll trade straight across for one of these baofeng's or something similar.

I got one to test for our area. Way more better then the crap we get sold for our business.

Uhf or vhf. We run motorola at work. Vhf. Other fire departments run uhf.
We program our own radios
Look on antenna


We switching to Afracs this winter
They are expensive radios

Does anyone know if/ how much these BaoFengs interfere with a beacon? Definitely interested in the radio, but I'd much rather a working beacon than a working radio.

It's a UHF.

What?

It's a UHF.

I know Glentel or White Communications can program if you have what you need. Frequency numbers etc.

Sure.
But I don't think I can communicate with the fmrs radios though can I? I'm not a radio nerd. All I know is push button and talk.

GMRS/FRS has an associated UHF frequency. As long as the handset is capable of operating in that range, 462-467, then Yes you should be able to program it to the associated FRS channel. Then privacy codes will have further programming.

It's 403 to 470 so maybe I can get it to work. Need to find out what freqs most run on and see if I can get it to work.
