Summary: Very Disapointing
Review: Bought four of these this past summer. Best range we've experienced is about 1 mile. That was once and the planets must have all been aligned "just perfectly". Usually get only a 1/3 to 1/2 mile. Two of the four units lately are so staticy and garbled you can't carry on a conversation. As soon as I get a chance their getting shipped back to Uniden under warranty.

Summary: Nice product for the money
Review: I picked up a pair of these and they seem to be pretty nice radios for the money. The subcodes are compatible with the Motorola, and the range similar to other FRS products. I have never tested GMRS range. The weather alert is a nice feature. I have a couple issues with the product, the volume is too low, which is offset by having the mic gain too high, so the radio works well with its pair, but people other brands of radios may not be very loud, and others brands may have trouble understanding you when you speak 1 inch from the mic (speak further away). Also the squelch release is slower than Motorolas and Kenwoods, so the first thing people say may get cut off. Still not a bad radio for the price.

Summary: Not 5-mile GMRS
Review: This listing is incorrect. These are 1/2 watt, 2-mile units,
even in GMRS mode. The description says 5 miles in GMRS mode.
I returned the units untested when I learned this.

Summary: Poor quality!
Review: You get what you pay for. The range is not as listed on this website, plus you are REQUIRED to purchase a [$] (5 year) license to use this or ANY GMRS radio. These are poor quality toys!
