What is National GMRS Radio Day?
On April 19th 2022, the FCC officially lowered the GMRS license application fee from a ridiculous $70 to the current and much saner $35. This was certainly a cause for celebration, and since that day, tens of thousands of radio enthusiasts rushed to the FCC website to become newly licensed GMRS operators.
That same year, Buy Two Way Radios celebrated the new, lower GMRS license fee by declaring April 19 National GMRS Radio Day! We established this as an annual event to celebrate the new accessibility of the GMRS to the American public.
Why is the sale only 35 hours?
It represents the $35 cost of the license fee, which caused the sudden surge in GMRS license applications. It is estimated that during the first 35 hours after the introduction of the new fee in April 2022, the number of GMRS licenses granted by the FCC more than quadrupled over the same two day period in the previous year. For the entire week of April 19, 2021 there were 900 license grants. There were 3,875 in that same period in 2022. That's quite a surge.
