Family Radio Service:
The Family Radio Service (FRS) 2-way base (fixed) station “transceiver” (“transmitter and receiver”) radio has been designed for family and friends to keep in touch without the need for a license.
It provides safety and convenience indoors for two-way radio operation between home base and other mobile FRS units, and operates on Family Radio Service designated frequencies.
The FCC has established the license free, short -range two- way radio service for family and individual recreational use.
The optimal range for this 2-way radio is approximately 2 miles in open areas; less in areas with buildings, dense foliage, and mountains.
