TrailBand turns an FRS, GMRS or MURS channel number into the exact frequency and settings to program into a handheld radio. Built for offroad and overland groups, where some vehicles have bubble-pack FRS walkie-talkies and others have programmable radios, and nobody can work out how to make them talk to each other. • All 35 channels: FRS/GMRS 1 to 22, the eight GMRS repeater pairs, and MURS 1 to 5 • Receive and transmit frequency, offset, bandwidth, tuning step and power setting for every channel • CTCSS tones and DCS codes, with the bubble-pack privacy code number shown beside every standard tone • Search by channel number, or by a frequency you heard • Favorites for the channels your group runs • Export a CHIRP-compatible CSV to program a radio over USB • Send a plain text programming card to the group so every radio ends up identical • Reference articles on FRS vs GMRS, MURS, matching consumer radios, using a repeater, and choosing a trail channel Frequencies and power limits follow the US FCC allocations in 47 CFR Part 95. TrailBand is a reference tool: no account, no data collected, works entirely offline. A radio must be certified for the service it transmits in. TrailBand says plainly where the popular Part 90 handhelds stand.
