The New Operator’s Guide to GMRS Paperback – March 31, 2023
While technically GMRS has been around in one form or another for many years, the current GMRS service was established in 1987. GMRS’ growth as a Personal Radio Service under Part 95 of 47 USC really took off in only the past couple of years. Regulatory changes that added messaging, channels and authorized FRS and GMRS channel sharing date back only to 2017.
These changes, together with an influx of inexpensive Chinese-made radios, set the stage for explosive growth. People from all walks of life have discovered the advantages of GMRS radio operations whether for helping keep track of the kids in the great outdoors, staying in touch around the farm, off road trips, emergency communications, or long highway road trips as part of a caravan.
As with any technology-based activity, GMRS requires some background knowledge to avoid some of the pitfalls associated with getting started in a new activity. This book is designed to give you the basic knowledge a new GMRS operator will need to get started on the right path – all in one compact written source.
The topics covered include:
- Basic Radio Knowledge

Basic SHTF Radio: A cop’s brief guide for understanding simple solutions for SHTF radio communication. Paperback – July 12, 2022
Do you want a two-way radio to communicate during emergencies, disasters, or the end of the world? Is the information online or on YouTube just too confusing to get a good understanding of what your options are? If so, this book is for you!
Don’t let the test of ham radio put you off. Obtaining a ham license is not difficult and does not require specialized knowledge of electronics or physics. If ham radio doesn’t suit you, there are several non-licensed or minimal requirement options, like FRS (Family Radio Service), GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service), or CB (Citizen’s Band) radio. Communication around your property, neighborhood, or town is possible using nearly plug and play radios that anyone who could program a VCR can setup.
In this book, we discuss the options that the average person has to communicate, what they are, and their strengths and weaknesses. Terms are defined and explained. Techniques to use radios during times of upheaval or SHTF are included. Even forms of electronic warfare and how they may be used against you or countered are examined.
This is NOT a “how to get your ham license” guide or a technical explanation of radios and radio waves. Note: this book contains excerpts from the Suburban series of books with new additions.
