Cross-Linked Repeaters?
There was a discussion in June in which this was said:
--------------------- There was an earlier discussion here about how several places in the U.S. now have cross-linked amateur radio, GMRS, business, and even CB repeaters. I have monitored a few of these set ups in larger cities. Even heard one cross-linked ham-GMRS repeater out in the boonies of Texas, think they were cattle ranchers. 73, Lloyd -------------------- How exactly is it legal to cross-link ham and GMRS?!?! |

It is not. I have a feeling many people consider GMRS a second-class service. In my area, in Ohio, there is talk of linking a GMRS repeater to a 2 meter system. These folks will be reported the the FCC for appropriate enforcement action, if and when it happens. http://www.popularwireless.com/pra.html |

What happens when GMRS user is talking on the ham frequencies, but doesn't have a HAM call sign? |

Cross-Linked Repeaters?
"an old friend" wrote during an emergency it doesn't matter as part 97 allows any use of the bands in an emergency. A common but erroneous misconception. While subpart E, article §97.401(a) allows licensed AMATEURS to use any available frequency during an emergency, it is NOT reciprocal to other services and it does NOT allow GMRS (or anyone else) the use of the ham bands. if the linkage were under the control of a ham then depnding on the setup 3rd party rules would apply "Third party" rules do NOT apply to the situation, because this is not third-party traffic as defined in Subpart A, article §97.7(a)(46) but rather it is retransmitting signals from another radio service which is specifically forbidden in Subpart B, article §97.113(e).
