I don't own any GMRS radios.Are y'all talking about those two way
walkie talkie radios I see for sale in the Wal Mart stores and
similar stores? They require a license?,,, I didn't know that.How
about those Nextel cell phones that also have built in walkie
talkies?


Nextel cell phones do not require a license. In the Nextel example,
Nextel itself is licensed on the frequencies, for that purpose, and
the caller is doing so on Nextel's license.



You misquoted. I didn't write the NextHell part.
