 Rating: - Nice radios but no 26 mile receptionNice radios but forget about 26 mile reception, i like the feel of the radios and the weather broadcast is nice. Rating:  - Midland GXT800Excellent Product. The communication is very clear. More clear than my cell phone. I was not able to get a lot of communication distance, but I do live up in the hills where even cell phone service can be touch and go. I was pleased to find that the provided batteries were already charged when I opened the package. Rating: - Powerful and well made radiosI bought these radios for use by the administrator of our condominium to keep in touch with maintenance personnel. We are very pleased with their performance. The radios are well made and powerful. Unlike many who buy radios, we are not interested in long distance communication but communication with employees working inside heavily reinforced concrete buildings. We have experienced no problems in this regard. The administrator in her office can communicate with maintenance employees working in ... Read More Rating:  - 26 miles? Are you sure?I have buyed this 2 ways radio by reading the comments here in amazon. It doesn't worth the price, the max distance it can achieve a real comunication is like 2 or 3 miles. 26 miles may be in direct view and near a lake or something. I still prefer the Motorola radios! Rating: - Awsome 2 way radiosAfter lots of research I decided on a pair of Midland GXT800VP4 radios. I think I chose right and they seem to be well built and fairly good range. I can talk to my Brother in law that lives 1.5 miles from me and over a mountain. That's about as far as I need to reach. Switching between channels is my only con as it's alittle tougher than others I've used. But after getting used to it, that con is ok. Overall I'm pleased with these radios. |
