You can't even legally use those radios anywhere without a license

2017-11-11 15:51:48 UTC  

There are legal bands where is still technically illegal

2017-11-11 15:51:49 UTC  

I don't know shit

2017-11-11 15:51:54 UTC  

In USA at lesst

2017-11-11 15:51:55 UTC  

But nobody will catch you

2017-11-11 15:51:56 UTC  

So ymmv

2017-11-11 15:51:58 UTC  

@Tervy so I don't need to reprogram these for those free bands?

2017-11-11 15:52:15 UTC  

Use FRS frequencies and nobody will complain tbh

2017-11-11 15:52:17 UTC  

those 5r arent cheaper

2017-11-11 15:52:19 UTC  

Yeah they will, VHF/UHF take minutes to direction find

2017-11-11 15:52:21 UTC  

if you have a link for the antenna Tervy would be perfect, and thank you for the recommendation

2017-11-11 15:52:34 UTC

2017-11-11 15:52:38 UTC

2017-11-11 15:52:45 UTC  

There are NO bands you can legally transmit on without a license.

2017-11-11 15:52:49 UTC

2017-11-11 15:52:52 UTC

2017-11-11 15:52:55 UTC  

when it works it works perfectly

2017-11-11 15:53:06 UTC  

its something about if you have other tablet drivers installed

2017-11-11 15:53:08 UTC  

but its a massive pain in the ass to get working propperly

2017-11-11 15:53:17 UTC  

@entropea FRS you can legally transmit without license, look it up

2017-11-11 15:53:20 UTC  

aka windows trying to forceupgrade your current drivers

2017-11-11 15:53:23 UTC  

I need a licence for it, lol

2017-11-11 15:53:23 UTC  

Unless they're FCC registered walkies for like GMRS/FRS Which they aren't.

2017-11-11 15:53:25 UTC  

Rip

2017-11-11 15:53:36 UTC  

Sure, if you're using FRS/GMRS radios

2017-11-11 15:53:43 UTC  

You need an FRS radio technically but nobody would care enough to tell

2017-11-11 15:53:44 UTC  

Not wouxons.

2017-11-11 15:54:04 UTC  

But hey, I'm not gonna tell anyone if you do

2017-11-11 15:54:04 UTC  

How would anyone else know

2017-11-11 15:54:11 UTC  

Just saying mang

2017-11-11 15:54:16 UTC  

I pirate FM

2017-11-11 15:54:19 UTC  

It's all good

2017-11-11 15:55:13 UTC  

Also, if you talk shit on the radio, be prepared for someone to find you and kick in your door

2017-11-11 15:55:31 UTC  

@Smackymander yeah install drivers as admin and then flag that installation folder as "read only"

2017-11-11 15:55:36 UTC  

to prevent windows from fucking it up

2017-11-11 15:55:36 UTC  

I mostly listen tbh

2017-11-11 15:55:39 UTC
