KC4GZX GMRS Frequencies

Only individuals can obtain a GMRS radio station license, and only members of the person's immediate family can operate the radio stations under that individual licensees control. This doesn't mean you are limited to talking with only members of your immediate household! Nothing in the rules forbids you from carrying on your personal business commercial or non-commercial personal communication while talking with other GMRS licensees.

Be prepared to share the channels. There are still a large number of "grandfathered" business licensees using GMRS frequencies. These were licensed under the old Class A CB rules and are restricted from modifying their licenses or improving their radio systems. The FCC no longer licenses businesses in GMRS.

How do you gain access to a radio repeater? You either have to know someone willing to add you to their system or you have to install your own(rather expensive). No repeater owner is obligated to make their repeater available to you even though the new FCC rules say written permission to use GMRS repeaters is no longer required. GMRS repeaters are private property and owners responsible for the proper operation of these repeaters may have those repeaters turned off to prevent unauthorized access.
