Yep you sure can, I have two units that cover both FRS (license free)
and GMRS frequencies. I can use the FRS frequencies without a license
but not the GMRS, but I sure can listen to GMRS freqs all I want.



That was all previously addressed. You CANNOT legally use one of these
radios ON ANY frequency without a GMRS license. Since the radio is
classified as a GMRS radio, use even on the FRS freqs constitutes a
violation of FCC regulations.


BS, the instructions that came with my radios plainly state that the FCC
requires GMRS users to have a license, FRS users do not and there is an
application blank included for the GMRS license.
