462.6275 is between channel 3 & 4 of the FRS band, not GMRS. Not even listed as FRS for that matter. Most likely a 462.625 repeater.

There being a roger beep or "courtesy tone" that's a repeater, likely on 462.600Mhz.

I am learning the GRMS frequencies also but I was under the impression if the TX of the repeater 462.600 it could be either + or - offset of usually 000.600 which makes the repeater input freq 463.200 if offset is + or if - offset would be 462.000, or am I just wrong?

@@DKoppJr the off set for frequency pairs on GMRS is positive (+) 5Mhz. The other is for VHF. Do not program the inputs as extra channels.

You'd benefit from an external antenna like a tuned 462 MHz monopole with built in ground plane leads. Those little duckies are pure trash on the SWR meter, amazed they even work at all...

The external antenna the radio came is good I like It but I prefer telescopic antenna better it obviously fits better in my backpack if I bring it to the park or something

yes , but its illegal to transmit on GMRS with that radio as its not part 95 certified.

Yes, it's easy :) YT vids will show you how to "Unlock" the Radio then vids to use a free software called CHIRP,... Buy a programming cable super cheap, plug into computer, program all the GMRS Simplex channels then look up GMRS Repeaters in your state/area, load them in & even name them if you want ;) It's not "Illegal" because FCC doesn't have Laws but it is technically against the Rules lol.
