Cool Guy Radios

Brownie Turtle read a book called AC6V's FM 101x Using FM Repeaters book and found out that the old Motorola Astro Saber radios the Turtle family uses are using CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) or PL (Private Line) sub-audible tones to open squelch during transmissions. Brownie heard that newer Motorola radios used by "cool guys" use frequency-hopping and spread-spectrum digital Motorola's. So he managed to scrounge some old DTR410 radios, so they can be cool too. These are much more secure than FRS/GMRS or Chinese "Feng" radios if you use your own private channel. Get some better radios, so you are not broadcasting to everyone. 'Merica.
