All manufacturers exaggerate the range of these little radios. I have
used these to hear users on top of a 14,000 foot mountain from 6 miles
away, but there were no obstructions between me and them. That's the
best distance I've achieved. I had a lower power version of these and
they worked well for several years before one of them died. I saved its
battery as a spare for these and I can still use the one working with
these. Most Midlands use the same rechargeable batteries, although you
might carry at least four alkalines along if you expect to be away from
the recharger for more than a day. If you're camping out you might want
to establish a timetable to use them to extend battery life. They have
excellent channel security, either with just two of them or in a group.
Hearing other users of the same channel can get very annoying. The
numerous privacy choices prevent that almost 100%. Like others, in a
city or any enclosed space the range is very limited. The headsets can
be handy of you're fishing or hunting. I've used 2-way radios for more
than 40 years. The first ones I had were the size and weight of bricks.
These are state-of-the-art, light, with good clips and among the best
currently available.
