I am always open for correction. It is good to always review the rules as they may change from time to time. A local ham urged me to do a little more research on this matter. I kept referring to households using a GMRS license, but here is what is stated in Part 95.1705(c)(2): “Any individual who holds an individual license may allow his or her immediate family members to operate his or her GMRS station or stations. Immediate family members are the licensee's spouse, children, grandchildren, stepchildren, parents, grandparents, stepparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and in-laws.”
Good Afternoon. Was just curious about what antenna you are using for you rig? I've currently got a Browning 6155 for my repeater. It works pretty well, but always room for Improvement without spending $2,000 i hope. WRDA382 CHEERS from Colorado
How did you handle the identification? I ended up using a uv-5g and a raspberry pi pico to do the trick. And how did you get permission to put that thing up on someone else's tower? I would really like to get my setup more than 50 feet of elevation in this flat area.
This took about a year and a half from inception to realization. We have been working on this project with the Town of Little Elm over a portion of that time. As far as the rules for identification, those can be found at the following link under § 95.1751 GMRS station identification: www.ecfr.gov/current/title-47/chapter-I/subchapter-D/part-95/subpart-E The repeater itself is not required to ID. I hope this helps.

It is a PCTel UHF commercial antenna. Unfortunately, I don’t have the model number for you. It’s a fairly tall fiberglass antenna.
