Midland LXT330VP3 22-Channel 16-Mile GMRS 2-Way Radio (Pair)

I bought two sets of these and setting them up was simple. They work well and are easy to use. So far they have put up with abuse and are convenient to carry. The batteries last for more than a full day of use. The sound is clear and the call feature is very useful.

These radios were purchased for a large church facility used to communicate with the custodian. They replaced existing battery sucking ones and have been a joy to use.

Great product at a good price. They work very well around the farm and woods, even in hilly areas. They are light and easy to use. Batteries hold charge for a long time. Charger stand is convenient and nice.

I bought these walkie talkies because they had some pretty good reviews. My elderly father lives with me and can not be left alone and I have six acres of ground, so if I go outside and I'm down the other end he can use the call button to signal me or the talk button and we can hear each other just fine, I keep them on from about 9am to 7:30pm and then put them in to charge at night and they are good to go, so I highly recommend these if you need to stay in touch with someone, though I can't tell you about longer distances, these are great for me.

I have a pair of these and they work but no way will they go 16 miles. I did a test and they won't even go 1 mile. I tried the high power channels. This was line of sight test too. I could see where my other radio was and it wouldn't work. They are not good for heavy populations either. Too many people have the same channels and you hear tons of other people talking. If you live in a highly populated area, I would sugest a radio with a security feature that scrambles your signal. Other than that they are good for short communication. I give it only 2 stars because they are not being truthful about the distance.
