    Midland - GXT1000VP4, 50 Channel GMRS Two-Way Radio - Up to 36 Mile Range Walkie Talkie, 142 Privacy Codes, Waterproof, NOAA Weather Scan + Alert (Pair Pack) (Black/Silver)

    • Maybe 1 mile capability in the city, 10-15 miles in the forest on uneven terrain, works well at the lake, on road trips and having some fun with the kids
    • Reception is a little spotty in rough terrain, Great for on the farm, not so great for in the woods.
    • Used on this years hunt, went a couple miles very well up in the mountains even over rough terrain and small canyons
    • Slightly better than expected in bad terrain.
    • In thick forest/rough terrain they travel less than 1 mile.
    • We haven't had the chance to try the 36-mile range claim, but I can tell you you will need line-of-sight for that to work; some mild terrain (limestone hills) disrupted reception at about 3 miles
    • Only used them for one moose hunt but was able to talk to lesser quality radios from 6-8 kms away in dense rolling terrain
    • but I've reached other drivers that were no less than two miles away in a very hilly / obscured terrain.
    • n’t attest to how far the range is, but within a few hundred yards they worked perfectly.
    • ​Very nice and work as they say
    • It's not as flexible or soft as you'd hope considering not all ears are created equal
    • does everything as they promised. was worried after the cheaper version puked on me after 4 months but these are great
    • Highly recommend A++++++
    • They helped to facilitate intermittent conversation between my wife and I as we travelled across the great expanses that makeup our great country.
    • we use them to move across the country and have been using them at her new apartment as well as when we go out.
    • We use these to communicate on our 20 acre property as well as during disaster drills held in our community.
    • They won't work nearly as well as much more expensive HAM hand held radios but they generally allowed communication when we tried.
