I love my local emergency radio net (#GMRS). Although sometimes, I end up screaming into the radio (PTT not engaged...)
Calling #Blind #HAM and #GMRS operators. I'm interested in getting into GMRS and HAM, and would love to know what radios, gear, software, etc you use. Links and connections to resources would also be awesome. Any input is appreciated. #VisuallyImpaired #LowVision #BlindMastodon #BlindFedi #BlindFediverse

I'm Ted, KC0URT (amateur) and WRNU773 (GMRS). I am active in our local radio club and ARES organization. I am _just_ learning Mastodon after never learning any related apps - clueless about hastags and @s. #introduction #hamradio #amateurradio #digitalhamradio #ARES #gmrs

Just participated in my first #GMRS Net today (Social Net, 46x.625 Seattle). Really impressed with it!
The home QTH is in rural Illinois, so there isn’t much activity on #GMRS here. I was in Joliet, Illinois earlier this week, and put the #GMRSradio in “scan” mode. I was expecting more activity, but was surprised to hear just how active the GMRS community is in that area. Cool to hear the GMRS repeaters in action too.
Probably should have listened and realized #GMRS was dead here before getting licensed and buying an HT. Oh well
I've bit the bullet and did the #GMRS thing. It's just too easy to do two way HT stuff under GMRS rules with family.
Should #ARES, #NTS, #Skywarn and friends embrace non-ham bands like #GMRS? I know the NTS people do to a certain extent, as evidenced by https://radiorelay.org/programs and some of their other material.

If you visit #GreensboroNC and you don't have a GMRS license, get one because there's crossover between the Amateur Radio and GMRS communities there. I enjoyed QSOs and nets on both services in Greensboro during my road trip. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #hamr #GMRS 2/4

Finally "finished" my radio go box. Very pleased with how it turned out. #GMRS #AmateurRadio
Just checked into the Piedmont North Carolina GMRS Net on the 462.6000 (PL 141.3) Guilford repeater. It's a friendly bunch of radio enthusiasts, many are hams as well. Glad I had the radio on scan and found the net. #GMRS #GreensboroNC
