Introducing GMRS and the KG-905G
e General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) is a two way radio service that oers some
powerful benets. Users are allowed to transmit at high power, up to 50 watts, and use
advanced equipment, such as repeaters that enable you to transmit over large areas. e
GMRS requires the user to purchase a license, and a single license covers the user and
their extended family for 10 years.
e KG-905G was designed to allow you to take advantage of all that GMRS has to
oer and more. Right out of the box this radio is congured to allow you to transmit on
the 15 high powered GMRS simplex channels, 8 low powered simplex channels, as well
as the 8 repeater channels.
Read this chapter to learn the basics of using your new KG-905G radio, such as select-
ing a channel, transmitting and receiving, and scanning.
