Well worth the money
 
Review Date: October 5, 2009
Reviewer: F. Hernandez, Mickeyland Florida
I owned a pair from the leading competitor to midland and even at the same rating for range, could not receive or transmit through heavy urban obstruction from inside a vehicle for more than a mile. This Model was able to do both at 3 miles with the added problem of multiple Ham radio transmitters in line with my signal. In open country, The signal carried for a measured 12 miles, and that, because the radios were not farther apart. for $80. How can you go wrong when considering all the features and the performance.
Good Radio's Worth the Money, Excellent for Hunting
 
Review Date: December 2, 2009
Reviewer: D. Chambers, Atlanta
These radio's work very well after you get over the fact that no portable radio will work long range in an urban setting. The advertised 37 mile range is not realistic in most settings. No portable radio will work over about a mile unless there is an unobstructed line of sight to the other party such as over water (or maybe mountain top to mountain top). These are 5 Watt radios. The FCC limits the power output on GMRS Radios to 5 Watts maximum. Some brands are not even 5 watts, however these are.

I use these radio's at our hunting camp in Central Georgia. In the thick forest, the maximum range is about a mile. As indicated above,I have used all major brands with Midland the best and Motorola coming in second.

What I like:

Maximum Range
Camo finish
Push to Talk (PTT) works very well, the switch is solidly built
The included headsets work well but are somewhat uncomfortable to wear
More features that you will ever need
The Value Pack with included accessories is a great value and better value than any other radio on the market.
Waterproof, ok to use in the rain
The Amazon price is a real bargain for the radios and all the accessories that are included.
3 Year Warranty (as far as I now the others are only guaranteed a year)
The rechargeable batteries last a long time.

What I don't like:

The unit is somewhat bulky and slightly larger that most radios on the market. However they still fit in your shirt pocket or on your belt with the included belt clip.

Summary:
If you want GMRS radios and accessories that work well at a bargain price, this is the one to buy.
AWESOME radios!

Reviewer: B. Y. & E.Y, Denver Co, Usa
These 2-way radios are awesome! They are fairly compact,
work extremely well, & are eveything the seller advertises
them to be. The product arrived very quickly & was packed
well. We would definitely buy from this seller again.
very good
 
Review Date: November 24, 2009
Reviewer: Raymond Rector, Central Illinois
I ordered these and received them in two days. Overnight shipping. I have used these every time I go hunting. In the woods, I'd say the reception was pretty good as long as your terrain is flat. Belt clip them to your bibs or pocket and use a headset instead of fumbling for them all the time. Get rid of the headset that comes with them (too bothersome and don't fit worth a darn). Get the avp4 (surveillance type) and you're set. Plenty of choices for channels to select and all the other features are a bonus. The animal alert calls are pretty cool too. If you use a headset, remember to run the wire under your shirt and clip your collar. If not, be ready for a tanglesome event. Will be using them every time in the woods.
great 2-ways!
 
Review Date: October 28, 2009
Reviewer: B. Hollabaugh,
These radios are great quality and offer a crisper, clearer sound than others I have used. I've only had them "in the field" for about 3 weeks, but so far they've held up to everything I've asked of them. Recommended!
