Programming an ICOM F4S
I have purchased an ICOM F4S and have recently aquired the software to program it.
What I'm looking for is a list/database of frequencies to use and upload to it. I'd like it to be compatible with FRS/GMRS channels because that is what my other radios are and also my Airsoft buddies use those channels.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi....
if you go to the FCC website and look up the FRS/GMRS info you will find a listing to links that can show you the frequiences for the two radio services...or you can look up Midland model GXT900/950 /series radios and in their specifications gives a frequency chart. the link is WWW.midlandradio.com
Hiya! Your F4S isn't usable on FRS for a whole list of reasons, some technical and some legal. Once you license it for GMRS, though, it will make a great GMRS handheld. Here's a link to the FCC's info page for GMRS:

You can google "GMRS frequencies" and all kinds of info will come up. Many lists to pick from. Also a small note the software will only work on DOS. I have mine loaded on Vista and it works fine. I hope this helped. Carl
