Already have a radio. The question is if a license is required for these VHF radios that are 25/50 watt.

25/50 Watt? Is it a Marine radio? It's legal on water. On land I think .5 watt is max without license

I have the 50 watt VHF radio from rugged radio. The Vertex VX2200. I've found some other forum threads that state a license is required above 5 watts but that the desert racers generally don't bother getting the license.

We used 5 watt radios at race track never bothered with licences. I did do some reading FCC requires licence anything over .5 watts. GMRS licence $90 good for five years. Unless there are complaints I doubt FCC even pays attention

Narrowing the model as we get closer...

Now the Carson forecast for Saturday is 30% showers in the AM and 61 degrees, so the guessing continues.

Typical northern nv. I see dust and mud in our future... Just be prepared and enjoy the adventure..

Awesome that is the one I bought last night, should be here Thursday. Will I need to program it to be able to hear and talk with everyone?

If you bought it from rugged radios, it should already be programmed.

The only gas station is in Dayton, and you have to drive on the pavement about a mile or so.

so are we going to do a gas station stop?
