  • At 1 mile, they are not clear, weak signal, poor quality
  • They are simple to use and the sound quality is excellent

Reviews around reception (3.96 of 5)

  • In comparison, the reception on the Uniden is almost unusable at my house, and I'm not that far from the radio tower
  • I used to use these years ago at large outdoor airsoft games and they allowed me to keep in contact with my team-mates while out on the field with them, but after leaving the field and going back to back to the loading site, I lost reception and the game was not even 2 miles away
  • When the kids would ride off on their bikes we lost reception after 1 mile
  • Within one mile they became static and no reception at all 2 miles
  • Stay away from the Uniden GMR 3040-2CKHS, they have very poor reception.

Reviews around battery (2.35 of 5)

  • Returned items - drained batteries every day, too expensive to use.
  • These radios seemed to drain the batteries within a couple of hours of light use, which is faster than I would expect.
  • I am not sure why the batteries are drained so quickly for 3 triple A's
  • They are very durable, but you must make sure they are turned off while not in use or they will drain the batteries.
  • Under heavy use we only got 30 minutes on a set of fresh batteries.
