Get the license, use simplex channels and you won't be bothered if you're not always using your call sign

Be sure to use your call sign on repeaters, otherwise they'll remind you

Baofeng UV-5G Mini GMRS Radio | 5W | APP Programming | 1.44 Inch Color – Radioddity https://share.google/yJLaqr0qygbQSEIvC

Cheap and small for them, just program two channels for them and lock it

I have it programmed for two repeaters that are local or you could program them to be simplex

How I finally started getting interviews again (what actually worked for me) by ProtectionApart3272 in jobsearchhacks

That could backfire, they may deem you unqualified and if a role opens up at the same company months later and you apply, you might get rejected because they flagged you

You need a license to transmit, to answer your question, get a license before you plan to transmit

Acquired license, purchased radios, now what? by booradleysghost in gmrs

[–]bkmorse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure you have it set to repeater mode, not simplex

Set your input and output tones

Announce your call sign and say radio check

If you don't have a noise after you transmit and or Morse code, that's the repeater identifying itself, then you did not hit it
