Ouch. $75 per employee.  
I wonder how many enforcement actions have been taken against unlicensed 
operators...

Chuck,
You certainly can!

You need to have a $75 license which is good for five years for each individual 
employee that your company who is not a family member.

The FCC definition of family member is very broad, but if it’s just a random 
employee you’ve hired off the street, they probably need their own license.

In my case my operations manager is my cousin, so we occasionally use the local 
repeater for work communication.

  When did they change the wide channels to 20KHz? I thought they were 
originally 25KHz?

  And that table does not list the power limits. There are different limits on 
the different channels.

    Not to get to fact based, but here is the page at the FCC that lists which 
channels in GMRS are 20KHz and which are 12.5KHz.

    Click the "Data" tab.

        That request is loaded with traps. Even expensive propagation software, 
or ones like the good free ones, can't gaurantee 100 percent accuracy. The 
typical setting is 90 percent confidence for the three major variables. I 
charge $500 for a propagation study. For obvious reasons, if you know me, I 
wouldn't recommend either of those two but Motorola. Kenwood is ok though. The 
receivers on Hytera aren't great. I guess it just depends on how important it 
is.

          A GMRS repeater somewhere on a high point and Tytera or Kenwood
