I explain some of the differences, advantages, and disadvantages between GMRS, FRS (bubble wrap radios), MURS, and HAM radios - and also explain why the Baofeng UV-5R handheld radio may not be legal for you to use, and compare HAM to GMRS - including how easy it is to get a GMRS license vs a HAM radio license.
