    What is FRS? FRS, or Family Radio Service, is a UHF radio frequency band allocated by the FCC for general public use. The operating frequency ranges from 462.5625 to 467.7125 MHz, with a maximum transmitting power of one half watt. FRS radios are small and lightweight, making them ideally suited for outdoor activities.
  • Page 106: Frs Limitations

    Channel scan allows your FRS radio to scan all FRS frequencies for signals. After scanning briefly to see what channels other users are on, simply set your FRS radios to an unused channel and enjoy less interference. For greater privacy, some FRS radios have a voice scramble feature. This feature causes your message to sound garbled to other FRS users that are not part of your group.
