Notice some of the latest radios are
combination FRS and GMRS Radios... drives a lot
of GMRS repeater users
crazy.

My understanding is those so-called combo FRS-GMRS
radios don't have the required PL tone generation
circuits in them to activate repeaters. Plus they
don't have any offset capability either which is
also required to use a repeater system. And, I
could be wrong here, but I thought that the GMRS
repeaters you have to pay for access. They are not
the free and open type of repeater you commonly
find in Ham Radio V/UHF operations.
