Welcome To WQPY804's GMRS Page!

Visit the myGMRS.com website's map section to find more repeaters around Maine and the rest of the country.

(FYI: In the above listed repeaters, with '[NET]' at the end, indicate that those specific repeaters each hold an informal check-in net every Thursday evening at 7pm ET.)

(ATTENTION: There are now some new guildlines for using many of the repeaters around Maine as of late January 2025. Click here to view them.)

On the FCC website, go to 'ULS License Manager' and log in with
your FCC Registration Number (FRN) and password. After entering
your password, click the 'Apply for a New License' link on the
left side of the page. Choose "ZA - General Mobile Radio

the fees. Click the 'Continue For Payment Options' button to
choose the method of payment and follow their instructions.

Once your application has been granted, you can download an
official copy of your license from the License Manager by
clicking the "Download Electronic Authorizations" link on the

page. In the 'My Authorizations' box at the bottom of the
page, select the call sign(s) you wish to download. Add the
call signs to the 'Authorizations to Download' box by
clicking the "Add' button. Then click the Download button in
the lower right-hand corner of the page. The download will
be automatically converted to a PDF file and you can choose
to Open, Print, or Save.

Also as an extra FYI...
If I'm not too busy, I do locally offer to help test radio equipment.
I have 100w, 300w, and 1500w dummy loads plus a Bird 43P wattmeter.
The elements I have are listed at the link below...
