I think I just got my secret santa gift. It was addressed to Victor Frost, which was the tip off, but no note, card, nothing, and was sent direct from Amazon, soooo... *shrug*
Yeah, it's great. Actually, my dad was a little jealous because he actually has it on his amazon wishlist! It's exciting because it does a shit ton of frequencies. For now I'll just stick to FRS, but I think I'll get my GPRS license for it.

Haha that's great, I didn't realize your dad was into that sort of thing too. Now be careful on FRS, I think you can turn the power down to FRS legal levels but FRS radios aren't really supposed to have removable antennas so don't go nuts just in case. Not sure about GMRS, but it seems everyone with a modern walkie talkie from Walmart is a pirate these days without even knowing it. I'd definitely look into getting your HAM licence for it though. It's more work than a GMRS license but less money, more explicitly legal on those frequencies and I think you deserve to have the extra radio cred. I have a similar one, basically the same just a different housing, and I think its fun just to scan around, whether or not I'm allowed to transmit. One time I picked up the Drive Thru from the Mcdonalds down the road!
My Santee should get their gift today, I hope its an ok gift, I didn't have a lot to go on. (Thank goodness for easy return polices lol)
And a very belated thank you to my Santa who got me this awesome Pokeball serving bowl set (Pokebowls if you will), and a really awesome color change Mario Coffee Mug, which has become my daily coffee mug!

Totally a great gift though, if it is my gift!
