	General Mobile Radio Service - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) is a land-mobile UHF radio service in the United States available for short-distance two-way communications to facilitate the activities of an adult individual and his or her immediate family members, including a spouse, children, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, and in-laws (47 CFR 95.179).
		Mobile and base station-style radios are available as well, but these are normally commercial UHF radios often used in the public service and commercial land mobile bands.
		Mobile units, base stations and repeaters are not currently permitted on the GMRS channels in Canada.

	Two-way radio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Two-way radios are also available in mobile and base configurations.
		An example of a two-way radio that both transmits and receives at the same time (or full-duplex) is a mobile phone or cellular telephone, which uses two different radio frequencies to carry the two directions of the conversation simultaneously.
		The business band radio service uses the same VHF frequency ranges as MURS, and the same UHF frequency ranges as GMRS and FRS.

	GMRS Description
		The General Mobile Radio Service (formerly known as Class A of the Citizens Radio Service) is a personal radio service available for the conduct of an individual's personal and family communications.
		The radio transmits on the 467 MHz frequency of the channel "pair." This signal is received by the repeater station on that 467 MHz frequency, and is automatically retransmitted on the 462 MHz frequency of the channel "pair."
		The most popular kind of mobile radio is the "handheld" type carried on the person (worn on the belt, carried in the purse or pocket, etc.), although vehicle-mounted transceivers are also permitted.
