Information

The Rino two-way radio operates on

General Mobile Radio Service(GMRS)

frequencies regulated by the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC)

in the United States. Operation on the

GMRS frequencies is subject to rules

as specified in 47 CFR Part 95.
In order to transmit on GMRS

frequencies, you are required to obtain

a license from the FCC. An individual

18 years of age or older, who is not a

representative of a foreign government,

is eligible to apply for a GMRS license.

To apply for a GMRS license, you

need FCC Form 605 (605 Main Form

and Schedule F) and FCC Form 159.

the FCC web site at:

them through the FCC forms hotline at

government.

government for any restrictions of FRS

or GMRS use.
