Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Midland GXT710VP3 22-Channel 26-Mile GMRS 2-Way Radio (Pair)

Customer Review: Works but you can't change the batteries without breaking it.
Summary: 2 Stars

As far as RF goes the handsets work well. However, I bought them as a saftey measure as I crawled under the house to do repairs while spouse remained outside monitoring the frequency.

The buttons are located so that as you press up against things (almost impossible not to do in a crawlspace) you can change channel or turn it off (both of which I did) inadvertantly. Also if you grab it the wrong way, you can change settings without intending to. It works great as long as you are very careful handling it.

I decided to store the radios since I do not have frequent use for them. I thought it would be a good idea to take the batteries out. I looked at the owner's manual that told me to push down on the release lock and push up on the belt clip. Pushing down on the release lock did not release the belt clip. So after my wife and I spent about an hour each trying to figure it out, I tool a screwdriver and pried the blet clips off. After that removing the batteries took a matter of seconds.

It's good to see that Chinese engineering is up to its usual high quality.
