You guys need to look into:  www.ccnow.com
or something like that.

It makes ordering things easy, as we have no clue over here
what a Euro-Dollar is worth on a daily basis...  :-)

Wrong.  MURS is a Part 95 service.

Wrong again.

There are many reasons why not.  We have recently been discussing them
here - which YOU were obviously not aware of.

People get scared off by licenses.  They want ready-to-go, turn-key
applications.

Like I said - people don't want to deal with licenses.  The also don't
want to pay a lot of money.  FRS radios cost as little as $20 at Wal-
Mart - if MURS radios can come anywhere near this number, it WILL be a
success.

That is the first thing you've said that is of interest.

Not at all.

What an insight you have!

The PROBLEM is, at 1200bps they don't work very well.  Most all
applications have all been written to work at ethernet speeds.  NOBODY
wants to sit around and wait for things to happen.  The trick is to
come up with applications that are useful at 1200bps.  That's what I'm
working on.

Looks like the proper tense should be
"was" or "might have been" a Part 95 service ...
