Hey Mathew, Speaking of GMRS I just picked up last Friday two DB-420's for GMRS and we will be installing them on two of our three GMRS repeaters. I pulled one out of the box and it looks like they will do the job on GMRS. A very nice looking antenna. We just installed one on 443.050 (Ham) last fall and it is doing a wonderful job there so I am hopeful that these I just got will work just as well on GMRS. Very best of 73, Russ, W3CH
