Decades back old VHF LO systems used in jurisdictions could cover hundreds of square miles with a single tower location up high..I’m not sure about FRS since the rule changes, but I did testing years ago and a half watt FRS couldn’t touch a MURS radio. Where MURS shines is in mobile and base applications. There are just too many variables that could substantially change the answer. I was able to broadcast over most of our rescue squads revised district (other departments kept encroaching, eventually we had nothing).
Yeah, getting the antenna OUTSIDE is key. Inside of buildings, FRS may have an edge. The base station was just a dingo ranger made by cushcraft. If you are in a different environment, you may need to experiment. Just want to through this out here.. on a side note.. here in Phoenix Metro theres a reason why Fire/Hazard calls are on VHF and not the trunked systems because of exactly an issue with UHF (which is what 800mhz is in reality) has had issues getting out at times and caused safety issues on scene.. Its a known fact higher FM frequencies propogate less then lower ones its why new trunked systems have had so many issues because agencies used to VHF discovered their old repeated tower locations weren't enough.. I used several of the old Radio Shack, 19-1210 mobiles peaked up to exactly 2 watts (they are capable of doing 5 watts on business part 90, but would limit themselves to 1 watt on the MURS frequencies. For mobile units a good MaxRad or Laird NMO mount style was the way to go. That would probably be a fair comparison to a bubble pack fixes antenna FRS radio with the new 2 watt limit (on shared channels). The graphs compare the most commonly available 2-way radios such as ham, CB, FRS, MURS, and GMRS. FRS-only units have antennas and give off lower power levels. I doubt you would be able to tell any difference due to the effects of foliage on trees. You must log in or register to reply here. If MURS had the output power hell if CB had the legal output power of GMRS youd seen different useage patterns. This link is for a reliable seller which we have used and this package includes all of the necessary ancillary equipment that you will need:No MURS unit in any condition of modulation, may exceed 2 watts of transmitter power output. I’d say about 15 miles on the “wimpy” MURS base to mobile. We had a few more dead spots than the 50 watt department radios and definitely less range as we could talk to dispatch even when the repeater was down on the 50 watters. Mag mounts often get pinched and don’t perform as well, a roof mount is usually the best, if your other half won’t kill you for drilling holes in the car. The Multi-Use Radio Service (MURS) is better than FRS/GMRS for family and neighborhood emergency communications and does not require a license. There are just too many variables that could substantially change the answer.
