Customer Review: Good for close range...
Summary: 2 Stars
I just purchased these radios because I wanted a long-range two way communications system. I go paintballing, fishing, hiking alot. I tested them out by having someone at my house with one, and then I drove in my car with the other one. I wasn't impressed at all, I only got about 1 1/2 miles out of them, even on high power. I don't live in the mountains, city, or thick woods either.
Although they didn't get that long of a range out of them, I still recommend them if you are going hiking or biking. I also like the "tactical headsets" that go with radios.
Bottom line, don't get them expecting to get a 5-14 mile range. That only happens in open areas. But, you really have no choice if you want two-way-radios because the 14 mile range is the maximum they make right now.
