Summary: Beyond expectations
Review: I purchased these radios for a trip from Wisconsin to Arizona. My wife and I were driving separate vehicles and wanted to be able to be in touch. The radios performed exceptionally well, even when on occasions that we were out of sight of one another. Batteries lasted for the whole trip which totalled about 28 hours and still show ample power. They are easy to use and well made.

Summary: piece of junk
Review: I'd rate this a 1 star, but I didn't only because maybe I didnt understand what these radios are all about. Here on the north side of Chicago, these radios were unable to establish contact over a distance of 4 blocks. Repeated calls back and forth to the other party, while they walked this 4 blocks, gave extremely disappointing results. Maybe its because traffic is really heavy, but I still find this unacceptable. It really only worked well up to about 2 blocks away. The radio automatically comes on with channel 1, subchannel 1 selected. There were no others on that channel. I manually scanned all 14 channels and found almost no one else on these frequencies. Maybe these radios just aren't for city use. I think they stink. I avoided giving a worse rating only because I don't want to scare people away. One woman says she uses it to call her husband working in the yard. I'm pretty sure it can handle that task. But not much more.

Summary: Great for road trips....
Review: Took these on a little road trip from New York to Florida..they worked great and allowed us to communicate from a decent distance between the two cars. The only downside is that these are popular and often times you will pick up other people. The solution is to just change to a different frequency, otherwise a great buy at this price.

Summary: Wonderful Experience All Around
Review: We purchased these radios for our move from Idaho to Arizona. The seller got them to us in plenty of time (as stated) even though we had purchased them late.
We used them throughout our trip and found them very satisfactory for such use. Never had a problem communicating and only had to change the channels twice due to heavy traffic in heavyily populated areas.
We used alkaline batteries and they are still working after nearly two weeks after the move.
We found them user friendly and very easy to carry.
Motorola you have our strong endorsement of this product. Thank you.
