Licenses are now $80 (and going up next year?). It's no wonder the
retailers would rather a prospective consumer not know they will need
a license. I keep hearing Wally-Wonder-Radio ($8/hour 'salespeople')
in Best-Buy and Wal*Mart tell folks that: "Oh, you no longer need the
license. The airwaves are now free."

A GMRS license now costs $85. It went up a few months ago.
