Hi...
I am looking for a way to communicate with my wife while I am out doing
errands.
Looking for something hand held with a range of 15-20miles that would
either have no license or a small licensing requirement from the FCC.
Looking for something without a monthly fee also

Any suggestions?
Thank you!

The ONLY thing I can see is you and wife both
get your amateur Tech. licenses. Then you

could work through a repeater ( assuming

there is one near y'all) and be pretty reliable. A
CB , FRS or GMRS handheld is just not gonna
cut it. Only other way is the cell phone thing

but there goes that monthly fee.

Anyone else got any ideas?

Couple of 10 meter radios coverted with a couple of low power linears
will do the job perfectly. You get quiet frequencies on the freeband and
at times won't even need the linear. **** on the repeaters, not enough
privacy for what you want.
