In Wyoming, people frequently need the assistance of Search and Rescue. No matter how small or large the situation might be, Search and Rescue volunteers are there to help get people home safely. Having a radio that is FRS/GMRS capable can increase the chances of being rescued.
VIDEO CONTEST
Be 307 Aware would invite you and your team to create and submit a video educating Wyoming residents about the 307 channel and its capabilities, and you could win a GMRS/FMS radio.
