Actually, what Motorola says is:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">The TalkAbout and fr50/60 two-way radios operate on the FRS frequencies, approved by the FCC, for license-free use in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and areas covered under FCC jurisdiction. At present, the U.S. models are also legally operable in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and Uruguay. TalkAbout radios in Argentina operate on the same first 7 channels as TalkAbout radios sold in the U.S. For all other countries not defined in the preceding areas, the TalkAbout and fr50 two-way radios are not legally operable, and should not be operated as the frequencies may have official government or licensed business uses.</font>
Motorola also manufactures a U.K. version, which operates on different frequencies.
