I mean, your smartphone already knows how to talk on 600 megahertz, 700 megahertz, 800 megahertz, 1.7 gigahertz, 1.9 gigahertz, 2.1 gigahertz, 2.4 gigahertz, 3 gigahertz, 5 gigahertz, 6 gigahertz, etc. I see absolutely no reason it would be unable to talk on 915 megahertz.

Last year I had to replace my phone that had GMRS capabilities. It had that due to the hardware, an additional board was installed for this. This would be what is needed for something akin to that.
