Where to get a Radio. Amazon has a good selection of all types of radios.
I suggest a Baofeng UV-82 as a good starter radio. Easy to use, works well, and inexpensive.
Info & Help for Baofeng Radio Users. This page can help you set up your radio.
Or, get a GMRS License, get your FRN # first.
Then get license "ZA" for GMRS
As of April, 2022, the license fee is $35.
The license is good for all members in a household and is good for 10 years.
