Annabooks Releases New Book: Technical Guide to GMRS

Learn the technical details of General Mobile Radio Service and how it leads to amateur radio

IIndio, Calif., Jan. 19, 2026 – Annabooks is excited to announce the release of Technical Guide to GMRS written by Sean D. Liming and John R. Malin. General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) has been around for decades, but GMRS has become more popular with FCC rules changes and the variety of inexpensive GMRS radios on the market.

“Not everyone is going to take a test to get a HAM license. GMRS provide alternative radio communication when cell service is not available”, says Sean D. Liming, co-author. “Of course, once you get into GMRS, it  can lead one to get interested in getting a HAM license. GMRS as a pathway to amateur radio is one of the book’s driving themes.”

The book has 6 chapters that look at the basics of radio communication, GMRS technical details, exploring different GMRS radios and software, connecting to repeaters, and troubleshooting tools and diagnostic software.

The book is priced at $24.95 and is available through the Annabooks.com website and other online books stores.
