There's a lot of wouxun radios that can be unlocked for gmrs tx, almost all
of them. I just figured out how it's done. If you buy it directly from
wouxun you can request it to be unlocked before they ship it but the ones
sold here are locked and you have to change some frequency limits to allow
it to tx on gmrs. You still have to decide if you want to use an fcc
approved gmrs radio or if you want to change those settings or not on the
UV-980P and others that are not fcc approved for gmrs. Kind of silly but
that's the way it is.


Thanks, Jeff
