The GMR30 also has the ability to use GMRS Repeaters, which the 22 channel GMRS blister pack radios do not. I regularly check into the Monday night 1900 hours net conducted via the High Potosi 462.625 GMRS repeater from my living room here in Pahrump, via a GMR30 with a super rubber duck...

Also it appears the Bao Feng in your link is strictly a simplex radio, it will not communicate through GMRS repeaters.

Bao Feng radios are considered by most hams to be disposable radios, with infrequent use they may last a year or two, but with everyday use, six months to a year is the average lifespan. There is no repair facility for them in the USA and everyone who has sent one back to China for repair has...

Had a 69 Dodge Daytona Charger, 440 Magnum 6 Pack and automatic years ago, ran pretty well. Only owned it for a few months, someone came along and offered me many times what I had in it, so it went down the road.
