Most of the FRS radio manufacturers<br>
also offer headphone/earphone and speaker/mic units for<br>
their radios and have jacks for these accessories - usually<br>
to the Icom-type or Kenwood standards, Garmin has their own<br>
for the Rino radios.<br>
<br>
Therefore, they must all be breaking the rules if your<br>
interpretation is to be accepted.<br>

I realize the post was long, but I quoted the full section earlier in the same post that explains that accessories must be certified with the FRS unit. Since Alex referred to that section, I was addressing Alex's conclusion (regarding Bob's uncertified accessory), quoted directly above it, in order to emphasize the pertinent parts of that section .194.<br>

I believe the FCC would simply point to 95.194: "You may<br>
not attach any ...other apparatus to an FRS unit.... There<br>
are no exceptions to this rule ..."<br>
<br>
Pretty clear, having read and siscussed similar topics<br>
before with the FCC or via one of the TCBs.<br>
