Family Walkie Talkie

I have a pair of GE 20-Channel Family Radio System Model FH35820/21 purchased overseas and would like to use it in Surrey, B.C.. Its frequency is 409.75-409.99 freq (MHz). Wonder if the use of it here may violate any telecom / police regulation. Kindly advise if you know it. Thanks,

Toss 'em and get the TriSquare eXRS radios. 100% digital. 100% private because you use your own channel (billion channels available) Never any interference from other people. No license required.

Nothing available that will do this. All those radios you see advertised with these outrageous range claims are totally false. I can't even make that range on my amateur radio equipment. (This is direct point-to-point, handheld communications, without a repeater as all consumer-grade equipment is made for)

All GMRS equipment requires a license. With your license you can use repeaters through GMRS. Other options include an amateur radio license, which requires a test.

I need to buy like, 11, for a family vacation. Anybody out there able to help?

Motorola is the cadillac of radios. You can pick up some cheap 1 or 2 channel radios at any electronics store, but you can also rent them from your local radio shop.
