what you have is a 1/2 of a watt child locater and that is it one mile and your done.

rember this is a four old radio radios in 2024 are 1/2 of a watt for family service with all the privecy codes which are not privet thay just lock up the radio so no one can talk to you as your radio are coded but thay can still hear you. I Owen rugged radio's they have no privet codes just 5 watts going in to a repeater at 60 watts then back out on second channel just trying to help.

comon realy a three year old radio rules have changed and new radio's have come out to replace them ok here we go. by the way I am licensed for G M R S my radio is also F R S.

please don't mix in the codes with the channels there are only 22 channels in F R S land then you say privecy channels and thay are not privet your two radio's will seak out each other be couse thay share the same code every one can hear you just not talk to you and why talk about a radio that is four years old thing's have changed may not even being sold anymore

and let's not for get you really have a low power F R S radio rated at 1/2 watt and 1/4 of a mile range do to power and the antenna as mandated by the F C C radio service KNOW if you bought a C D ROM down loaded it in a conputer hucked up the radio to computer in staled the tower in put tone received your license call sign then you and I can talk to each other.

I have said it over and over the radio runs on a 1/2 watt transmiter and has a quter mile range take to plates the plates represent 1/4 mile if one plate does not over lap the other you are out of range I am W R X N 824 from minnesota.

I chose to go with 35 feet of M&P Hyperflex 13. It was not cheap but for my personal portable situation I love it. From what I can gather even with this really good stuff, only like 86% of my output power makes it to the antenna. Hey sometimes the best you can do is the best you can do.

So how can I talk using (FRS) BF888S and (GMRS) UV9G?

What am I looking for that would signify it’s bad? Too high Ohms?

Best video on the subject I’ve seen!!

Is there a lockout feature on this light?

Great information. Thanks for sharing and also for putting up a webpage with the charts that you use.

Best explanation for on the GMRS waivers/conditions I have found.

link to the chart?

Ahh I see now why many radio operators damage there Nano meter

thank you so much this was incredibly helpful information you have no idea

what was your range test at

sorry pal G M R S has two different power 5WATT on hand held's and 45 watt on base

G M R S is 5 watts on portable and my base is 45 watts and requires a license for that 35.00 covers all family members and last's 10 years which is on my F C C license and my call sign is W R X N 824. and I talk to Chicago twice a month on a lower link,

i made a yagi from tape measures and did not measure anything. just eyeballed it. a signal came out when i put the baofeng on it. its mounted on my roof now and is continually transmitting dead air to the local repeater.

HOW DID YOU TUNE THE ANTENNAE

there is no 50 channels in are radio's

Do i need to get a FCC license for a gxt midland radio model gxt1000G

Wjat does all the power high low for?? Im new at all this

Where does the 2.5 multiplier come from?

I have the same antenna and similar set up but I have to keep it much lower because of my HOA... Do you see any issues if my radials extend under my soffit and gutter? They end about 6, inches from the brick on my house. Will this cause any issues?

Instead of Wouxun software, try Chirp Next with KG-UVD1P settings. The freqs won't default back to factory. The 805G GMRS model can be programmed similarly.

Note that the Wouxun KG-805M radio has a channel numbering system that is different from many other MURS radios (e.g. Btech MURS radio). Wouxun's channels 1 and 2 correspond to 154.570 MHz and 154.600 MHz, respectively. On business radios, these channels are known as "Blue Dot" and "Green Dot" channels, respectively, and are more likely to be used by nearby businesses. So it would be more advisable to rotate between channels 3-5 (not 1-3) on this particular model. In contrast, on the Btech MURS radio, the "dot" channels are channels 4 and 5, and rotating between channels 1-3 would make perfect sense.

Thank you for this.

Thank you for the video! I see your radio is programmed for wide band. In this regard, I have a question. When you push the PTT button, does the "N" icon still appear on the screen? My 7D has two W/N band selections. One for RX, and one for TX. I put both on wide from the front panel. There is no "N" icon. But if I press the PTT button, the "N" icon still pops up. Do you know how to program W on TX so that it sticks? I tried to do it in channel and vfo modes, but to no avail... Some software maybe?

Thank you a very clear explanation !

I’m so confused…I can’t do a simple thing like contacting my second walkie talkie 😢

This is ok for people in the USA where FCC rules apply, but the rest of the world has different rules. In most of Europe, Asia and Africa for example, there is a legal requirement to ID at the start of every conversation and then at 3 minute intervals at least. Not all of us are Americans. ;-)

Thank you for this, I didnt want it to be true being in Seattle area, but this confirms my suspicions.

Issac is that you?

OK, so SWR is a measurement of reflected power; so how and why is the power "reflected". Yes, I know it has to do with tuning the antenna so that the impedance matches between the antenna and the radio, but more directly, WHAT reflects the power, and how does tuning the antenna to its resonant length prevent that? Would installing a resistor at the ends of the antenna prevent this reflection?

How do you add frequency’s to it?

Cos my field is in computers, i have some idea, , your wondering, what the hell is an SWR, SWR stands for "Standing Wave Ratio", the transmitting signal travels along the antenna (FORWARD) and refects at the end, returning down the antenna (REFECTED), the forward signal interferes with the reflected signal causing constructive or deconstructive interference, differant lengths create differant phases along the antenna, when a peek meets a peek there is max emission, and when a peek meets a trough there is zero emission, an SWR ratio of 1:1 is perfect constructive interference, where the cycle appears STATIONARY on the antenna, creating a perfect waxing and waning electo-magnetic field, as the electric field collapses, the magnetic field increases and vice versa, , ,Without that load absorbing energy, the energy instead appears as a high voltage or high current somewhere which may not be equipped to handle it, , So basically, an ideal 1:1 SWR will produce a low 50ohm resistance match where the antenna does work, the SWR is relatively constant along the feedline, the impedance will vary along the line unless it is perfectly terminated (that is, the SWR is 1.0 : 1). This is an important concept for impedance matching, because with a high SWR, the impedance at the final output transistor load inductor could be mainly higher, or lower than 50 ohms, and produce a high current that damages the finals, , ,

Program it on chirp as an RB27 instead of an RB27v. The results are surprising!

COMPLETELY confusing "tutorial". Not informational at all. This video seem like it was made for people who already know how to use this device, not a new buyer.

where is the combo tool phillips on the 58mm knives ? You are fired !!! Hand your SAK card in to HR

I was using chirp to program my RB27b and RB27v radios when I noticed that chirp had a “full band support” for both radios. I gave it a try, and was surprised to discover that it gave both radios 99 memory slots, with full uhf/vhf functionality. I have plenty of other radios with that capability so I didn’t re-program them, but it is fascinating what can be done with them. The entire RB27 line has evidently been dropped. That is unfortunate. I have all three flavors, and they are my favorites!

Good luck using the earbuds/"headset". You might have included how to put the damn things in your HEAD!

I will say this... most of the ham videos on the interwebs talk in so much code... that i think they forget there are people who know nothing about the hobby (me) that are trying to learn. So when somebody breaks down definitions (and more importantly, functions and practical applications)... i get jazzed. So thanks!

Thank you... It's good enough for me to be happy... I'll keep looking for more. I'm bit nerdy.

THIS GUY IS WAY OFF!!! dB IS A LOGARITHMIC SCALE NOT A MEASUREMENT!!! dB ON AN ANTENNA INDICATES ITS RADIAL PATTERN FOCUS. A POSITIVE dB NUMBER ON AN ANTENNA DOES NOT AFFECT THE ERP!!! STOP MAKING VIDEOS!! YOU'RE TEACHING PEOPLE HOW TO BE STUPIDER!! STOP IT NOW!!! YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE A LOWER ERP THAN THE RADIO'S OUTPUT DUE TO INSERTION LOSS FROM CABLE & SWRs. YOU SHOULD SMACK WHOMEVER TOLD YOU TO MAKE VIDEOS FULL OF LIES!! IF YOU HAVE A FUNCTIONING BRAIN CELL LEFT IN THAT ROCK YOU CALL A HEAD, REMOVE THIS BULLSHIT VIDEO!! A$$___E
