In 1996, the Commission established the FRS as a very short distance, two-way personal radio service. The Report and Order established the FRS primarily on the basis that it would fill a market niche in short distance, personal communications needs. Because the FRS is intended to meet the needs of families and other small groups to communicate with each other while they are out of speaking distance or sight, but still within close range, and to prevent the FRS from being used as a substitute for other personal communications services, non-voice emission types, except tones transmitted to establish or continue voice communications, were not authorized.
