I learned this from watching Randy's videos: In simplex mode hold the radio by the body. In repeater mode hold the radio by the antenna.

I am ecstatically delighted and disproportionately flabbergasted with enormous gratification and appreciation for the dispensation for such a tendering mesmerizing information in which the prestidigitation of the concurrent and subsequent matter is thoroughly demonstrated through the innuances alluding to literal and metaphorical context. It's highly imperative to note that such is the significance of the aforementioned distortion in any shape or form will result in catastrophic ramifications to which will be the outcome of the epic proportions. I thank you for your unequivocal. I dealically base on my intellectual capacity and my vast knowledge, tactically and tentatively, right from the beginning of times especially in the light of eclesiastes evolution, i have come to a concrete, definite and profound conclusion that i actually have nothing to say...

This might be the best video you've ever uploaded. My only issue is.... If we pronounce the word "infinite" the way we do, then why can't we just say "finnet" for the opposite? We've been duped to say "fy-nite" which requires more of my mouth-hole to enunciate a 2 syllable word instead of "finnet" and I will forever be pissed about this.

Thank you for all the awesome videos sir!! Mere months ago I bought a UV5R. Your vids were the only ones that made sense to a complete beginner, and your guide helped me navigate the dumpster fire of the FCC site, you rock!

Zenu is well pleased with you.

Great info with some good laughs.

Very informative and funny channel. Thank you sir😊 Love the shirt and wall photo👍

I feel the same way Randy when I touch my handheld radio 😆 🤣 😂

I just recently found you thank you for the advice. Just received my call sign.. and I went out and bought a KG-935G-PLUS. Keep the videos coming I love them.

Love your vids…. Super funny.

My philosophy (and best practice for many) is to use the minimum power and resources to get the communication done. I have a friend who thinks he needs to run 50 watts into a repeater that’s a mile away, or while in a caravan with others while being able to see each other.

Thank you!!

Love all your videos

Really had me confuckulated with the polo shirt and the intro! 😂😂 I’m glad to see things back to normal, and I need not worry my heart!

please make a video about making a repeater with two radios like the AnyTone AT-778UV

Thank you. RIP WB5LIK I wished I would have paid better attention back then.

Other day while getting ready for work monitoring the local gmrs repeater, there were two guys in their mobiles just chatting away using the local repeater, they were obvious within site of each other talking about some older land rover defender D110 series 3 that is owned by one of my neighbors, in my town and the guy or wife drives it daily, and its right hand drive and the female driving it so they were commenting on that and other things about adding to their jeeps , i'm thinking " wow using the repeater so close why are they not on simplex" .... All of a sudden the owner of the repeater got on and asked " why are you both wasting the repeater when your two cars apart? please move to another channel and use simplex " I died laughing ,,, the owners very cool just not fond of using the repeater needlessly to talk to someone when simplex could be used.

Honestly I always assumed repeaters could be accessed sort of like an open chat room where anyone can chime in even if 2 people were talking. Am I a dum dum?

I know for sure my HT radios will not talk to each other from my job over 20 miles away. It’s for emergency when phones are down to reach my wife at home. Would be nice to find repeater info and be able to ask permission from the owner from other websites and not have to register.

I have not purchased a GRMS radio yet. I am in the learning process. Have you reviewed the Wouxon KG-UV9GX? The $$$ is a bit more than the radio's that I see you have reviewed.

It's the juice!

I got my license and just wanted to set up a repeater or repeaters near home but the frustration is not being able to get the repeater information on MyGMRS as it did not find my license number. Apparently the system takes forever to update. License was purchased last month and the it’s still not found on MYGMRS.

I noticed at 1.25X speed you sound normal. 😊😂

Damn... I've forgotten what my comment was!

My question is: what do you say when asked to identify yourself when using a repeater (HAM). I don’t have a license 😅

I am brand new to two way radios. I got my first radio a week ago. Maybe you or one of "those people" can tell me. I was under the impression that there were channels for repeaters and channels for direct radio to radio. In my area GMRS-16 and RPT-16 always announce the time or a morse code at the exact same time. does this mean a repeater is on GMRS-16. I checked the frequencies and they are different.

Won't a repeater just amplify the spurious emissions from my Boofwang? I would hate to jam transmissions from the ISS to ground control, ha ha.

I love the music but the thumbnail had me skipping the video for a while.😂

@TheNotaRubicon ... love your sarcastic-style ! ... would you please clarify this also to our collegues "Licensed Ham Radio Amateurs" please ... because ... i hardly hear any comms on the simplex channels ... they are ALL on repeaters (The Netherlands, small country i do receive 10 ham-repeaters) ... and 90% of what they say there ... has nothing to do with our hobby , it is just daily elevator-style meaningless blah blah 27 Mc CB-style ... allthough the bahaviour is much better the contents is not ... which is in turn an invitation for the unlicensed cause there's no serious talk anyway ... on repeaters i hardly ever hear anything related to building ham-stuff or actually doing ham-radio experiments ... etc ... So instead of confuckulating the newcomers ...you need to confuckulate the so called regular real licensed amateurs for this also ... From listening to the VHF/UHF amateur-bands we get the impression that real radioamateurism as it used to be is dead ... after they installed the antennas they have nothing more to discuss, so then it becomes a daily psychotherapy ... as in: not talking means i don't exist ... or to satify their endrocrine-levels (biology) ... ha ha. ... to me most is boring talk ... nothing of interest ... and nothing to learn ... maybe i'm to old for this ... The only reason i'm still there is because who knows i might need it when the SHTF.

SO I sould use a repeater every time i use my radio right?

Have you ever taught school. You remind me of some teachers I’ve had.

Hi how are you doing how can apply for business license?

Boss

8 minutes? I feel gypped. Now I have to go back to work 2 minutes 25 seconds sooner.

I agree, most americans are too stupid to think smart. This guy is cunning, well spoken and knows how to produce great videos.

I have no need or desire to use GMRS, because I have nobody to talk to that also uses GMRS. I have an old school flip phone for communicating with everyone that I need to communicate with. Then there is email. When I just want to talk to someone, about nothing in particular, I use the 2 meter and 70cm amateur repeaters. I DO NOT know anyone I talk to on these repeaters in person. I have only met them on the repeaters. Where I live, there are a LOT of 2 meter and 70cm amateur repeaters, and most of them are rarely used. I can talk on them to a person or group of people for hours. IF someone needs to use the repeater, all they have to do is break in, give their call sign, and let whoever is using the repeater know that they need to use it. Amateurs tend to be very polite, and have no problem allowing anyone to use the repeater as long as they need/want to. We take turns. If it is going to be a while, we can move a conversation (known as a QSO to amateurs) to another repeater. My radios can go from 5 watts to 80 watts, so I can use a lot of repeaters. An amateur repeater is basically a "meeting place" where amateurs get together to talk.

Obviously the spurious RF emissions are outputting hundreds, if not thousands of watts and that is causing your breakers to trip. Be sure to keep the radio away from any airports or hospitals as this could very easily bring down an airplane, stop pacemakers within a mile-radius, and disrupt life-support equipment anywhere within a few miles of you.
