GME making a move

[Datsun Man]

Well it looks like GME is starting to make a.move into the GMRS territory. They just released three different radios for the US market and the radios are made in Australia. Unfortunately the radios are only 5 watts, so they are a little weak to say the least, but hopefully GME will step up the game on that. I wouldn't mind making the switch if they got a 50 watt GMRS out.

For those interested in looking go to emeus.com for more information

Unfortunately the radios are only 5 watts,

5W is the maximum transmission power permitted for citizen band radios in Australia, so that everyone gets a decent go. Not sure if that applies to GMRS.

Understanding that Australia only allows 5 Watts for CB, the US allows for 4 Watts on CB and 50 Watts for GMRS(this post is for GMRS). If GME had a more powerful radios(even 15 watts would be good) then I would consider switching. As for now I might only consider the antenna since it should be a higher quality over Midlands Taiwan need stuff.
