Repeater Channels
This device can use GMRS repeater channels in the US, and
CBRS/PRS repeater channels in Australia and New Zealand.
GMRS repeater channels are not available in Canada.
Repeater channels use repeaters, when available, to enable
communication around obstacles or increase transmission
distance. Position reporting is not allowed by the FCC on GMRS
repeater channels.
Peer-to-Peer Positioning
You can send your location information to other Rino users

information is sent when you press the PTT key (push-to-talk) or
