Maker's claims vs FCC filing

Maker says

"8W GMRS Radio", "RF Output Power: ≤8W (GMRS)" source

FCC filing shows

4.159 W ERP (462 main), 3.802 W ERP (467 main); the only grant we found for this ID is dated 2024-02-21 grant

Our read

We couldn't find a filing for this FCC ID that covers 8 W. ERP and transmitter output aren't the same measure, but the gap here is large. Treat the filed figures as what the certified radio does.

"Not listed" means this model isn't on the NWS list of radios approved for the NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards logo. It doesn't mean the radio can't receive weather broadcasts. The maker pages we checked don't say whether alerts use SAME county codes. See the weather radio guide.
