Use of FRS Radios

On January 1, 2002, the Brookline Bird Club adopted the American Birding Association's (ABA) recommendation to use channel 11/22 (as a national standard) on Family Radio Service (FRS) radios  - also known as hand-held or two-way radios - used for birding communications.  Part of the club's Code of Ethics states " Be considerate of others when using hand-held FRS radios in the field by keeping the volume low enough to hear a transmission without disturbing others; by putting distance between those of us using radios; and by considering the use of earbuds to keep transmissions private.

Thank you for your cooperation.
