Is NGGMRS still linked in violation of FCC directives and general courtesy and good stewardship of available frequency resources?

In simple terms, it's not who doesn't hear you, it's who you don't hear. Get an SDR dongle and install gqrx, then you can tune into a GMRS frequency and transmit on that channel with a tone set. You'll be able to hear the tone in gqrx (which doesn't filter it out).

You can't have your gmrs repeaters linked to zello per fcc rules. Many systems have been closed down because of internet linked gmrs systems.

Can you setup radio to add gmrs functions to radio that also has HAM DMR repeaters working?
@NorthGeorgiaGMRSNetworkDOTorg1Ай бұрын
Yes this is possible. If your radio is not currently in the mode shown in the video. You will have to switch it to the mode shown. Once this is done you will be able to do GMRS and Amateur. BUT when you switch modes in the radio you will loose any and all channels programmed into the radio before the switch. So whatever is in the radio now you will have to re enter that data after switching modes, in addition to your GMRS channels

I'm curious. What frequency is the repeater on? I'm in the North Georgia area and I'm looking for a repeater to talk on. WSFM801

More information about the network, and repeater info can be found at nggmrs.org.

Hey there! I just made a Tx check on the flagship repeater to ensure it was clear. I have been monitoring for a few months, but am ready to join and use. I’m ’pretty good’ with programming the radios, but gmrs is relatively new to me. When I join, is there a resource that would allow me sit down and ask some questions about the hardware (mine) and some of the programming intricacies, etc..? Additionally, I’ve been REALLY wanting to join asap, but I know membership is 1-12mos. Does that mean if I sign up in November, I’ll have to renew in January? Thanks! WSEY654

I run my generator once a month for an hour. Letting em set for long periods time, is the worst thing for a generator . To prevent it from being stolen when I lived in Florida, I kept it chained to a hitching post I had set in concrete. I use my camp stove for cooking.

@NorthGeorgiaGMRSNetworkDOTorg13 ай бұрын
In the 578 series the PRO is the only one that carries the part 90 certification making it legal for GMRS use. The plus model is not certified by the fcc for this use. Therefore making it amateur only on the plus model.

Makes a lot of sense, I just realized that Mario updated his favorite way to tackle ED and it's crazy! Although what he previously talked about was pretty decent, it was difficult to follow, I just go'ogled the latest by Mario Volpstein, it's so much simpler and potent now!

THANK YOU!, I just purchased ONE AT-578UViii Plus to try it out for a family project which requires 24 mobiles and 35 portables. The AnyTone is absolutely NOT Public Safety Grade, but seemed decent for private/personal use. BridgeCom has absolutely horrible instructions and videos on their site. I was formerly a Motorola & Hytera dealer. I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but they are BOTH easier to manage. I ended up just buying XPR7550e portables and XPR5550 mobiles (demo models from 2 dealers for approx $400@ after averaging it all out). It was worth it just to avoid the angry calls from my extended family around the NYC area. Wow. BridgeCom’s “solid” reputation just died a rapid death. The 878 was a bit better, but has a TON of glitchy issues. Sad.

If the US importer (BridgeCom seems to be the largest?) wants any chance of commercial sales, they’ll contact you and offer you any $$ you request. Just to create a decent video library of tech support topics. Thanks again!

Forgot to mention… It’s not the process. It’s the lack of easy to navigate support and software. Not only is Georgia (except for Fat-Ass Fanni and her election clowns) a FREE state and 2A state, it’s most definitely a 2-way tech knowledge state. :)

@NorthGeorgiaGMRSNetworkDOTorg14 ай бұрын
It’s a one or the other thing. What you program would depend on what the repeater requires to activate it. You cannot just pick a random one. The tone you program in has to match the repeater or the receiving radio if using a tone for simplex.

There is nothing official. In the event of an emergency best to find one with known traffic to increase your odds of response.
