every thing midlen said on amazion no menchion you need a license for gmrs 22 chanels frs 8 repeter channels and pl tones too use the tower motorola and midlen are stuped neather co,. tested you welcome I am W R XN 824 gmrs call sign from fcc
all those radios are 1/2 watt each he did not know that long range is G M R S at 20 miles when you program in a tower tone on your radio get your license thay can help you Google RUGGED RADIO thay build the radio so thay know the radio
there are not 50 channels there are only 22 eight of which are repeater channels tap into a repeater and you will reach out to 20 miles off a 60 watt repeater at 150 ft in the air I do this everyday.
A number of these units are not for general use. They require a license to operate and YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT CLEAR as you will get people who don't understand radio into a shite load of trouble. The ANYTONE and AILUNCE are LICENSE ONLY HAM radios. The reason being is that the use of licensed radio without a license and VALID CALLSIGN is illegal and can land the oblivious and uninformed operator a hefty fine from regulators. Also, you cannot use licensed HAM radio on PMR license free 146 MHz bands due to the higher power output of them (they are not TYPE APPROVED for use on those frequencies) which will again draw the ire of the regulators. The standard PMR license free power output is approx. 0.5 Watt, where as licensed HAM radios can push out 5 Watts +. License free radios are great for family and outdoor stuff as you mention but DO NOT confuse them with licensed HAM radio. They are very different animals and should not be discussed as the same.
@@CaraRamelow-c6i nope, I would have said if that was the case. The two I commented on are excellent radios but not for unlicensed use. As for the other 3 (no license needed) radios my pick would be the Midland. It is a well proven platform. The other two are fine for general family type (not extreme environment) activities.
IF you went up too channel 15 which is above 22 these channels can not be used as thay are repeter channels and you radio out of the box is not programed for them
I have Midland radios. One think I like about it is, it does have rechargeable batteries but, You can also put in double A batteries if the rechargeable batteries run out of power. It's a good idea if you are in remote areas and have no ability to charge the batteries in that area.
how about putting in recharged batteries with back charged batteries I use back up battery packs for my radios and thay are built for Off road four whellers and dirt bicks my previder also sell raceing radios and business not like the big box store I refer them to child locaters do to mile range class dismist
OR bring rechargeable batterys charged and change out MY battery's has the belt clip bolted to the radio I pull my pin the hole battery comes and second battery go in and back on air
Misleading title, this video's title ought to be changed or the video ought to be removed... it doesn't discuss Best Long Range Walkie Talkie 2023, instead, it discusses priced radios... like 5 mile and 15 mile range ... for cheap... do not waste your time with this video... unless your looking for BUDGET radios
that is the way the CO lies to sel sel sel the best long range side is on G M R S you do 20 miles through a repeater net work of radio towers at 150 ft in the air for radio to tower to radio that is how it works I have three hand held's at 5 watts & a 45 watt base
this goes for all family service radio's thay have a 1/2 watt transmitter that put's you at a mile or line of site only thay are under F C C rules which can not be changed
the best long range talking is done on G M R S at 5 watt's compaired to family service at 1 1/2 of a watt to much round cluter will kill your signel true case in point I was one block from home and could not make the trip as two block building where in the way.
Hi. Was looking for a PMR 446 and while searching, came across your video. Beautifully made. I don't have access to Cobra. The options infront of me are Motorola T82 extreme and Baofeng UV 10R. Both are rugged, waterproof and shockproof. I am a bit in favour of Motorola though Baofeng has better range and costs half of Motorola. Can you please tell me your opinion.
I don't understand why more people don't just buy CB walkie talkies ? I tried so many PMR466 and they're ok for short range but CB makes a huge difference, depending on Antenna you can get 5 times the range of PMR466. I switched to President Randy III radios and the difference even with stock antennas was big but when both radios use aftermarket antenna the difference is "huge" or the beauty about CB is you can use a base antenna at home such as the IMAX 2000 and you'll even be able to contact people in other countries. With the President Randy III and the IMAX 2000 on the roof of the house I can make contacts from Ireland all over Europe to North, Central and South America when conditions permit with just the radio and a proper base antenna. I know this isn't what some people want but it shows the capability of CB vs PMR466. The President Randy III provides many more features, AM/FM but sadly no SSB. It comes with a car kit which I believe allows up to 12 watts, don't quote me on this. It has a lithium battery which is convenient. I tried PMR466 but I live in the Country and CB just gets way further even with stock antennas but for little extra a decent 27 Mhz whip can be bought for even better range. There is also the Albrecht AE-2990 which does have SSB and both the Albrecht and President can be modified easily to enable all frequencies.
YES family service is low power half a watt one mile in town do to low power and buildings so that is what you will get G M R S is your long hall 5 watts will get you into tower at 150 FT and give you a 20 mile range with 60 watts doing the trick
there no 50 channels in family service there are only 22 the 50 come in when you add all the privecy codes and thay are not privet example JO and David want to talk to each other only you put the same code on both radio's know the radios are linked to each other and no one can talk to you be course there missing the code BUT thay can still hear you only that is what the codes mean by the way I AM W R X N 824 and use G M R S channels which are the channels above 22
Ive used the second option and my honest review of those are, they're absolutely garbage. They break easy, they sound aweful, not to mention, you loose signal in an open area near the other person. I'd honestly rather not use it ever if you need it!
what you have is a radio with a range of only two miles becouse thay transmit at 1/2 of a watt do not take what is written on the box I have three hand held radios 1/2 watt on family service five watts on G M R S hand held 45 watt's on base with fcc license call sign is W R X N 824 know you now get your 35.00 dollar license and get your radio pl tone then your talking
midland G M R S radio is a miss prient there or no 50 channels there are 22 channels on F R S and 100 privecy codes so channel's 1 through 22 are F R S channels there are 8 repeater channels on G M R S but channels 15 through 22 are off repeater channels for G M R S using are call sign's people have though it is the police it is only us I am W R X N 824 on G M R S.
ha lets's get real that crap radio is set at 1/2 watt along with all the the other as thay are man dated by the f c c office here in the usa second slow down you talk to fast my radio's are same as that one but are built for Off road water tight not water proff second with a license your talking with a repeter you are tied to rande than is 20 miles each times 6 repeters covering 6 citys and the 50 i do not know where thay got that 22 channels frs eight repeter channels privecy codes rae so other people cant talk to you becouse thay do not ni the code you are useing so thay can only lission know maby you will under stand DO NOT BELEAVE THE BOX 35 miles is gmrs ok by the way I am W R X N 824 fcc license call sign hope you read my post

sorry long range on F R S is two miles or line of site only
one brick building will stop you cold
all those radios are 1/2 watt each he did not know that long range is G M R S at 20 miles when you
program in a tower tone on your radio
get your license thay can help you

@@jimmydriveway Take a look at the baofeng UV9R, rugged, waterproof to IP67
Can you suggest one or two models for actual long range?
Also, some Walkies require an FCC operator license ($35?) to use legally. This video does not mention that.
@@patc2515 That's the reason I clicked on this video is hoping for information on such...
Too bad you didn't actually tried any of the radios you repeatedly mention.
isent that stuped he would have gotten 2 miles on a 1/2/ watt radio becouse of f c c rules
Dmr radio transmissions are not secure and can be picked up they are also only for licensed operators
Surprised it wasn't mentioned
that' is a 75.00 dollar up grade on your 436 hp ht
DMR does have mild encryption, and some imports can do AES256.

that is the way the CO lies to sel sel sel the best long range side is on G M R S you do 20 miles through a repeater net work of radio towers at 150 ft in the air for radio
to tower to radio that is how it works I have three hand held's at 5 watts & a 45 watt base
How can this be for 2024 when im watching it February 2024 and it was uploaded 1 year ago? Alot has changed it a year mate.
this goes for all family service radio's thay have a 1/2 watt transmitter that put's you at

Incorrect! Many FRS radios made in the last 15 years will have around 1watt, or more sunce they used to be for GMRS.
the best long range talking is done on G M R S at 5 watt's compaired to family service
at 1 1/2 of a watt to much round cluter will kill your signel true case in point I was

how long is the distance?
In the US we have up to 2watts on Family Radio Service, or FRS.
The man demonstrating the video, you think he can TALK a little FASTER???
Just so you know, you can go into settings and turn the playback rate down. I know this because I normally turn them up so it doesn't take so long
need's to slow down I know and he does not even know what he is talking about
YES family service is low power half a watt one mile in town do to low power and buildings
so that is what you will get G M R S is your long hall 5 watts will get you into
tower at 150 FT and give you a 20 mile range with 60 watts doing the trick
1 mile is now long range? 😂😂😂
that is for F R S radios only I run 45 watt's for base.
there no 50 channels in family service there are only 22 the 50 come in when you
add all the privecy codes and thay are not privet example JO and David want to talk
to each other only you put the same code on both radio's know the radios are linked to each other and no one can talk to you be course there missing the code BUT thay can
still hear you only that is what the codes mean by the way I AM W R X N 824
and use G M R S channels which are the channels above 22
"rabblerabbleblablabla rabble blablabla rabble" ..What?? I didn´t catch any of that.
sounded like you said midline
there are several repeter's near me you can talk 20 miles
that's after your radio gets the in put tone to talk to a repeter where I live we have 6 repeters on the same
in put tone we get farther.
gmrs is the only long distence radio on the market becouse we use repeters like th ham radio world does
but there is no test involved
CB radio on AM can travel for many miles on an average day, and when you skip, sometimes thousands of miles on 4 watts!
And Amateur Radio, we have HF!
Ive used the second option and my honest review of those are, they're absolutely garbage. They break easy, they sound aweful, not to mention, you loose signal in an open area near the other person. I'd honestly rather not use it ever if you need it!
If your got your license, look at the GM15/GM30 radios.
Just get a UV5R
Anytones start at $350.
They are Part 90 accepted radios for business use in the US.
what you have is a radio with a range of only two miles becouse thay transmit at 1/2 of a watt do not take what is written on the box
I have three hand held radios 1/2 watt on family service five watts on G M R S hand held 45 watt's on base with fcc license
call sign is W R X N 824 know you now get your 35.00 dollar license and get your radio pl tone then your talking
You are trying so hard to hide your Indian accent.

Do you have to talk so fast can't understand most you say.
midland G M R S radio is a miss prient there or no 50 channels there are 22 channels
on F R S and 100 privecy codes so channel's 1 through 22 are F R S channels
