 The advent of the Family Radio Service and GRMS event has opened a whole new possibility for reliable short-range communications, and depending on your needs they may just fill the bill --or they may not. Understand that ANY planning means of event radio communication can save lives, exchange information planning and simply event be fun, so that is endorsement enough. Most of planning these radios operate on frequencies just above the 70 cm Amateur Bands...somewhere around 462-467 Mhz. The event major players all produce satisfactory equipment with similar standards so, for the price conscious, dollars can be saved if you know what to look for. First look at the specifications; the more watts of power out, the further your signal will travel. Beginners note that 700mw (milliwatts) is LESS than 1w (watt). More watts, more power, more distance. The manufacturer''s range claims are not fraudulent or specious, but they can be planning misleading unless you are in clear country, the ideal conditions for distance communications. Don''t expect a two mile range in heavy terrain, you won''t get it...sometimes you won''t get 200 yards. But for inner-mall talking with your kids and family members, most of them are ok. I''ve also used them on fly fishing trips where we have seldom been more than a quarter mile from camp and they were fine. If you are using your event walkie talkies on a climb up a tough mountain or in a sand-and-water situation, you probably ought to pay more because you are asking the radio to give you hazardous duty performance. If you just need something to entertain the kids as they play in the backyard or you need to keep in touch while you and your family members are in different ends of the mall, the less expensive units will do. So the planning first thing to consider is "What will my radios be used for?" the radios I might need would probably cost $1,000.00 apiece. My own portable walkie talkies were bought to help mountain climbers on moderate mountains communicate with each other, so I bought units that cost about $250.00 event apiece. But you can get perfectly planning servicable portable 2-way radios for light duty at 1/10 event of that cost. So need/price is the first thing to think about. The second thing I would think about in portable walkie talkies is quality. If my life depends on something and other people are depending on my life to continue, I tend to go with the best equipment I can get. Will the radio still work if it gets wet in a storm or dropped into a fishpond or the ocean? How likely is it to break if planning it accidentally gets dropped on a pile of rocks on a mountain or a sidewalk in a city? What''s the event guarantee cover? Remember: you want something you can depend on in times when you really need to communicate. Don''t be penny-wise and pound foolish. Don''t planning get a toy. Get what works and will work under stress. Welcome to the primier site for two way radios. Our company is the World's Leading Supplier for Professional Portable and Mobile Two-Way Radios & Walkies!
