Summary: Ooooppppssss !!!!
Review: Please don't buy this radio. It's range is about the same as an FRS and it's very hard to understand what your partner is saying. I have the T-5200 Talkabout radio wich is a much better radio.

Summary: Very disappointing!
Review: We have used Motorola FRS 2-way radios for a while and we've been very happy with them except we'd like a little more range so I ordered these radios to try the GMRS channels. I carefully read the instructions and my wife and I decided to try them out. We were disappointed because the sound quality is very poor and the range doesn't seem to be much better if it is better at all!. It appears that the speaker in this radio the problem. When listening to the old radios to someone using the new radios, the sound quality is good but when listening on the new radios (The GMRS radio) the sound quality is very poor and we are repeating our messages a lot. We might try to use them with earpieces to see if we there is any improvement in the sound, if not we'll try to return these radios.
Don't by these radios unless you want to repeat every message several times!
