Rating: Summary: Excellent radio! Review: I have 2 Motorola FS-Radio's and bought these Panasonic Radio's too, I prefer using the Panasonic's. They have a better range, are more compact and look cooler. The available car cord is handy too, eliminates use of batteries while driving.
Rating: Summary: AWESOME 320s Review: I just a pair today and they are great!. I went inside a grocery store and talked to my wife aone half mile away at home and they sounded very good.Thanks for a great product!!!.
Rating: Summary: Best audio quality of all that I've tried so far Review: I own both 320 and 325S. I've also tried Motorola FR-60, T289; Cobra FRS-220, PR-1000, PR-900(the latter two are GMRS radios). The Panasonic's are the ones I say "What?" the least in use.It's not very loud(but also not much distortion), got a tiny PTT button, CTCSS has to be set to zero if you want to scan all activities on the channels, and you have to keep holding down the Monitor button to break the squelch. All minor annoyances. It's been one year since I bought my first pair of 320. Flip-down mic/ear speaker used to be a reason I bought these, but I never had the need to use them. Vibration alert is nice for really loud places like Disneyland. But when it's too noisy for the ringer, it's also near impossible to hear transmission. Solid construction except the antenna seems won't last as long as the rest of the unit. Like other people mentioned, I had this dropped to concrete floor from waist level (the belt clip slipped), and it showed no ill effect at all. With best clarity from all that I've tried, and $20 after rebate, this is a keeper.

Rating: Summary: not what I thought Review: I really thought I was getting a pair in this order. Really I only got one. What the hell good does that do me. Now I have to spend another 100 to get another one. Way to be real clear

Rating: Summary: Not Impressed Review: I recently receive this product...and I am not pleased. I am getting a lot of feedback from the unit which is picked up on other radios. The problem? An overly sensitive microphone on the unit. My recomendation? Go with a Motorola, Midland, or Audiovox.
Rating: Summary: Good radio Review: I used these radios for a few months and they are very easy to operate and the signal is superb. I went hunting and used them to contact other guys in our group. I actually dropped mine and was able to use the Call Feature to locate it. With the discounts at Amazon.com, they are a superb deal.
Rating: Summary: Was left out in the yard for 3 months and still works! Review: I usually don't rave about a product, but this was too good to be true. I bought 4 of these radios for Christmas. Sometime in Jan. one of my sons lost his radio out in the woods by our house. Today my wife found it while she was out for a run. I pushed the power button and it worked like new. Unbelievable! I'm sure this is not the kind of "field testing" that they had in mind at Panasonic.
Rating: Summary: Very nice Review: I'd been researching and shopping for a pair of the FRS radios for the better part of the past six months. When I saw the price of these Panasonics after the rebate, I had to pull the trigger on the purchase. We have a Panasonic wireless telephone that we're very happy with--it seems they make a good quality product. Just about the only complaint I can make is that the volume doesn't get loud enough if you are in a noisy/crowded environment. However, this is easily overcome by either using the private call feature (awesome!) or simply putting the unit closer to your ear. We've only had them about three weeks, but my wife and I couldn't be happier...well, we'll be happier when the rebate checks arrive!
