One license is needed. This covers all radios you own and all persons in
your specific household. If your brother and you live at different
addresses, each of you would need to get your own license.

Actually, the rules say nothing about households. Here's the excerpt:

"TITLE 47--TELECOMMUNICATION

COMMISSION (CONTINUED)

PART 95--PERSONAL RADIO SERVICES--Table of Contents

Subpart A--General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS)

Sec. 95.179 Individuals who may be station operators.

(a) An individual GMRS system licensee may permit immediate family
members to be station operators in his or her GMRS system. Immediate
family members are the:
(1) Licensee;
(2) Licensee's spouse;
(3) Licensee's children, grandchildren, stepchildren;
(4) Licensee's parents, grandparents, stepparents;
(5) Licensee's brothers, sisters;
(6) Licensee's aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews; and
(7) Licensee's in-laws."

All it states is "immediate family members" with no stipulation on residence.
