The Brick is the word but I also 3rd the TRMN-8R for the GMRS. I am going to be putting it through its full paces next week if the weather is decent. But my testing so far shows its a decent little radio on GMRS. Perfect, no. But better than bubble pack. Plus it does MURS, Ham, and part 90.
I am still trying to figure out the base station part as I need several of those as well. I would love to find some surplus mobiles that are certified for part 95 AND easily programmable. I need to go hound the guys at the radio shop again to see if any have come in.
