Although I am satisfied with the radio, the belt clip is made of cheap plastic which broke within the first 7 days of use

And ... as a reviewer stated it comes in that hard molded plastic that must be cut off making a return less than ideal.

Instead of buying another cheap plastic clip that broke, we realized the lanyard hole at the top is big enough to use a small keyring and any lanyard to carry the device securely.

Got it for our family camping trip and it worked just as far as it said it would.

Since they were not purchased with the intention of using them a a distance greater than a mile or two this is not a problem.

tech recommended resetting them, by pulling out the battery and letting them sit for over an hour... as silly as that was, it worked and the units haven't had an issues since!i've locked the buttons so my kids don't accidentally mess around with the units.

Not recommended as it was a complete waste of money from the start.

They hold charges for a couple hours, clip on clothes easily and work as far as we need them (a few blocks radius).
