Maker's claims vs FCC filing

Maker says

"20W" GMRS transmit power source

FCC filing shows

18.41 W ERP (462 main), 17.5 W ERP (467 main) grant

Our read

The grant lists ERP with the test antenna, so it isn't directly comparable to a conducted rating.

Maker says

"Typical simplex range may be around 1–5 miles in-town or wooded areas, 5–15 miles in open rural terrain" source

FCC filing shows

Not covered – grants don't certify range grant

Our read

Maker range estimate, quoted as-is.

"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.
