Beats me. I don't have any licenses for radios. I just fix the things in the army. As always, Google is your friend.

To be more specific, I mean the FRS freqs including the ones shared by the GMRS range. The unshared GMRS range, no problemo.
Just curious, what's the allure of Sabre radios? They're built well and all, but they're old technology that still isn't cheap. There's better radios out there for cheaper...
