Licensed users will be issued a call sign by the FCC, which should be used for station identification when operating this radio. GMRS users should also cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only, avoiding channel interference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of their transmission time. Application for a GMRS system license can be made on FCC Form 605. You can call the FCC Forms Hotline 1-800-418-FORM (3676). If You Have Questions about the FCC License: Call the FCC 1-888-CALL-FCC (225-5322).
