I think this thread may belong on the rfi@contesting.com so I
have copied it there.

That said, one wonders if operating 440 in WalMart might set off
the inventory alarm systems?  Depending on how well their systems
are made might FRS/GMRS units get into them, and perhaps
even harmonics from a MURS or 2m HT in close proximity to an
unidentified wireless inventory security system receiver?

An annoying 2m kerchunker operating from inside a WalMart might
find himself causing an even more annoying bleep, bleep, bleep!
inventory alarm in response!

These are also coming soon to a Wal-Mart near you. They are asking their suppliers to include them in shelf packs to do inventory control at the store level.

Yup! That is the system.

I hope there aren't a lot of hams operating digital in those areas.
