I use to have some FRS radio’s long time ago that was only 14 channels.You didn’t have to have a license for those,so why do you need one now for channels 1-7 even if using .5 watt?
Never mind,found the answer in jwilkers Motorola MR355R review.
Glad to be of help! That’s what I love to do… keep folks informed and educated… feel free to ask questions anytime…
NO question is a stupid question… the only stupid question is one someone is afraid to ask… at least to me 
All the best… John
