 Practical, easy to use walkies September 16, 2008
Practical Midland walkies, easy to use and handy with base for power loading.
Have not tested their distance effectiveness.

On the Midland LXT44D 22 Channel 20 mile GMRS 2 way radio, it works really great, except that we've only been able to talk about 3 miles apart. I think perhaps if you were in the salt flats of Utah, or the flat land of Kansas, that you would probably get closer to the 20 mile talk range. Where we live it is a combination of flat and hills. There is excellent voice clarity.
Good Quality - Low Power July 7, 2008
I bought these for use with the AVP-H3 headset to use for our videography service. Communicating on the job in close proximity is clear and interference free. Inside, as in a hotel or other multi-level structure you lose nearly all efficacy. Cannot penetrate between two floors of a hotel.
Do not believe any of the distance ratings on GMRS radios. If you need any of these things to work more than a few hundred yards line of site, then buy professional business radios. These are low power consumer models...but very high quality.

bought this for my family to use on a Disney cruise. worked great all over the ship and from inside the stateroom to about 1/2 mile off the boat. security channels worked great even though a lot of two way radios were in use. Compact & durable, I like the rechargeable NiCd or four AAA optionm,lasted all day on a single charge. Battery gauge is bogus, shows full charge up the second it runs empty. Charging system is not intelligent so you have to monitor charge time to preserve battery life and peak charge capacity. Estimate the range in urban areas is about 1 mile, what more do you expect for $40. bought it here from Beach Audio, got it surprisingly fast. good volume and clarity. a bit more complicated to set up than I expected so you need to take the time to understand and teach others how to operate it.
Nice walkies February 15, 2008

The reception is very good, I used in big mountains while skiing to talk to my wife and had no problem. Even using it in "LOW" power it worked very well. That's one thing you need to be careful, using it in "HIGH" power consumes the battery really fast, making it necesseray to recharge everyday of use. Otherwise it lasts around 5 days.
