This Group for anyone interested in GMRS Radio or Emergency Communications. The General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) is a licensed radio service that uses channels around 462 MHz and 467 MHz. The most common use of GMRS channels is for short-distance, two-way voice communications using hand-held radios, mobile radios and repeater systems. In 2017, the FCC expanded GMRS to also allow short data messaging applications including text messaging and GPS location information. Services that provide functionality similar to GMRS include the Citizens Band Radio Service (CBRS), the Family Radio Service (FRS) and the Multi-Use Radio Service (MURS). The GMRS is available to an individual (one man or one woman) for short-distance two-way communications to facilitate the activities of licensees and their immediate family members. Each licensee manages a system consisting of one or more transmitting units (stations.) The rules for GMRS limit eligibility for new GMRS system licenses to individuals in order to make the service available to personal users. (Some previously licensed non-individual systems are allowed to continue using GMRS.) In 2017, the FCC updated the GMRS by allotting additional interstitial channels in the 467 MHz band, increased the license term from 5 to 10 years, allowed transmission of limited data applications such as text messaging and GPS location information and made other updates to the GMRS rules to reflect modern application of the service. An FCC license is required to operate GMRS system. Licenses are issued for a ten-year term and can be renewed between 90 days prior to the expiration date and up to the actual expiration date of the license. After a license expires, an individual must request a new GMRS license. A GMRS system licensed to a non-individual prior to July 31, 1987 is also eligible for renewal, but the licensee may not make any major modification to the system. You may apply for a GMRS license if you are 18 years or older and not a representative of a foreign government. If you receive a license, any family member, regardless of age, can operate GMRS stations and units within the licensed system. The FCC service rules for the GMRS are located in 47 C.F.R. Part 95 Subpart E. You can find information about GMRS licensing in the rules.

Water And Wind Relax

Listen to the wind and water, relax. In times of stress, I always turn to the sounds of water and wind to help calm my mind. The sound of waves on a rocky shore, a stream babbling down its course, the wind blowing through tall, autumn grass. All of these and more bring peace to my spirit in troubled times. I want to help others and share these experiences with videos of my favorite places where I like to be alone, with the ocean and the sky as my solace. Videos that just loop the same two or three minutes of footage over and over annoy me, so all of these are recorded as one, continuous video about twenty or so minute long. However, I will post longer videos that combine footage from multiple recording sessions. I do my best to select locations isolated from interference, but a few stray sounds and sights may briefly interfere, such as a voice, a barking dog, or a fisherman passing in a boat. If you enjoy these videos, you can support my work at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/WaterAndWindRelax All donations are used for travel expenses and equipment purchases and upgrades. Thank you!

The Net Fellowship Church

The Net Fellowship is a Church for all ages with a focus on reaching the emerging generation. We seek, in an imperfect way, to be a genuine and authentic expression of God's heart for each other and for the world. Our focus on reaching the emerging generation takes a number of avenues beginning with our children. As they grow older we must seek out effective ways to remain culturally and intellectually relevant. Our ministry seeks to build a cultural bridge to the younger generations while maintaining a smart but solid Biblical focus. We are not afraid of addressing the pressing issues and trends of our day nor are we intimidated by a culture that is becoming increasingly cynical of the Bible. There are good solid answers for the skeptic. We believe in the power of God to reach and transform a hard heart and we rely on the actual presence of God to mingle among us when we come together to worship. We are located at 2029 Flour Bluff Dr. Corpus Christi, Texas 78414
