Family Radio Service (FRS)#

FRS is an unlicensed low power two-way radio communication option, available in the United States. These radios are short range, limited power, and limited functionality, but generally inexpensive and easy to access. These radios are not legal outside of the US, and there is not generally an equivalent in most places.
