If you are going to use FRS frequencies, just get FRS radios. They are cheap enough. Especially for older, non ham licensed people. Less confusing, also. Remember, there cannot be ANY other legal method of comms to use the ‘emergency’ rule. If I recall properly, that rule ONLY shows up under am

I second the Amateur test, but in the absence of that, pay the 80$ and get the GMRS license, and use GMRS frequencies only. You still probably will not be 100% legal, but that's mostly on the radio not having GMRS part certifications which you can easily rectify by replacing them with one that is
