That's great if you live in New Zealand and Austrailia - but it is not
legal for radio operators in the USA to operate on those bands - both
from a power standpoint and because you have to have a license and those
frequencies are not in the band plan for amateur radio and it is illegal
to DX GMRS / FRS and LMRS frequencies.

The quality of the DX is great in the U.S., too. Many operate the
freeband on frequencies just above and below the U.S. CB band with
little problem. Run SSB and you won't require crazy power and you can
talk to other freebanding CB'ers and ham ops all around the world.
27.555 USB is recognized as an international calling frequency. If one
is worried about breaking the law, don't key the mic. It's legal to
listen.
