bullshit. AGAIN-THE LAST PLACE TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT RADIO LEGALITIES IS THE FCC!!! They WILL tell you it's not legal, regardless. The people who answer the phones are not qualified to make decisions about interpretations such as this, and can only 'CYA'. THERE IS NO LAW AGAINST USING subaudible digital access methods on GMRS, including DCS/DPL/DCG, or LTR. -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL Yahoo!
