FRS is "uniquely addressable" within some constraints. I am quite familiar with cellular, PCS, satellite and wireless technologies. Suffice that countermeasures are in place. One would need to be suicidal to connect any wireless device to an incendiary or explosive device. Someone could in theory create a Nextel group, via a legitimate business, and detonate things. Sheesh. We can not shut down all communications because the Boogeyman might use them. Has it occurred to anyone that prepaid wireless gets tracked?

Well, it's great that pre paid can be tracked. How about the first time they are used it is as detonators to kill a bunch of people crossing that bridge on Labor Day? So what if we could track them all...the people are already DEAD!

prepaid wireless does not get tracked. I can walk into best buy and walk out with an activated phone. no one knows I purchased it, they can listen to my conversation - but they can't trace the number to me.

FNC covering this again now.
