Even though I already have my Amateur Radio License, I still wanted something that I could give to friends or a trusted neighbor in the event of an emergency. This video is about the TIDRADIO TD-H5 GMRS Radio Overview and Programming. The TIDRADIO TD-H5 is a GMRS that comes preprogramed with 54 simplex and repeater channels. It also works on the FRS channels. GMRS does require a license from the FCC. however, there is no required test. You just fill out a form, pay your $70, at the time of this posting. It is scheduled to go to $35 in the not too distant future. These radios are 5 watts on the GMRS frequencies.
