FRS

Is FRS a real thing? Is there a practical use for it, or is it just a plaything for kids?


After all is said and done, more is usually said than done.

Well, FRS has an actual range of about 0.5 to 1.5 km (0.3 to 1 mile), In have used it on live events cheaper than renting walkies .

Re: FRS

The little, hand held radios used by the staff in stores like Canadian Tire or Home Depot, are they FRS?

Canadian Tire, at least Dixie & Dundas, uses *real* radios.  Not sure about Home Depot.  I think Indigo at Sherway might use FRS.
