Uniden GMR1838-2CK 2-Way 18 Mile 2 Pack GMRS/FRS Radio's with Dual Charger Included

Sturdy and well made for my kids to use. No problem with signal and range anywhere in our neighborhood. My daughter dropped one in a mug of tea which we thought would be the end of it -- but it worked fine after drying out. Terrific!

The two sets of UNIDEN two-way radios I purchaed arrived promptly and work as advertised, no problems were encountered in the purchase.

A finely made product. Solid performance at an outstanding price. I use the family radio frequencies and have experienced clear voice transmission. The sub codes give the opportunity to avoid unwanted transmissions. The units are also well constructed and easy to handle. The dual charger is a plus. You probably couldn't do better than the GMR 1838 in this price range.

I bought these for camping at a relatively open flat campground we always go to. The two main features that I wanted was rechargeability and channel subcodes. These units have that in a small, attractive looking device for an inexpesive price. Did not experience any interference or short battery life (you can also use your own AAA batteries if you want). I also like the call button feature that "rings" the other person when you want to get ahold of them (so you're not repeating yourself). Didn't use some of the other fetures like VOX so I don't know how well it does for that. The speaker volume was more than adequate and could hear people clearly.

I don't know if I would depend on them for long range capability but they were certainly adequate for what I bought them for.

Not bad for the money. Uniden makes some very good electronics. the devices are sturdy enough, but range is always a factor. We all know that unless you purchase a commercial device the range will always be subject. We enjoy the units and they are great for what we use them for, in the woods, walking, camping etc...
