Grant comment: "Output power listed is ERP. This device is authorized to operate in GMRS (Part 95E) radio service." The filed Part 95E test report (AGC10590240102FR02, test model TD-H3) gives a rated output of "1.5W/0.5W," an "Inseparable Antenna" of 2.15 dBi and a 7.4 V 2600 mAh battery. TIDRADIO's separate ham/unlocked TD-H3 grant, 2A4FBTD831, has no Part 95E transmit rows. Check that the label on your radio reads 2A4FBTD831G before using it on GMRS.

Maker's claims vs FCC filing
"5W Radio Handheld" (TIDRADIO TD-H3 listing) source
GMRS grant 2A4FBTD831G: 1.4 W ERP max (462 main). Filed test report: rated output 1.5 W / 0.5 W grant
This is the biggest gap in our database. TIDRADIO's 5 W listing is for the Ham/Unlocked TD-H3, and the GMRS-certified version was filed at about 1.5 W. On GMRS, expect the GMRS version's filed power, not 5 W.
