Default On radios...

No, not those radios...the other radios...

CB, FRS, or GMRS? Who's carrying what brand and would you recommend it?

Motorola 9500 series....with iVox it supports duplexing via a mic so you do not need to hold the dumb handset...

Default Real or toy?

I like this Kenwood, but it's as much for one ($60) as two Pairs of the toys...

This thing will go days and days on one battery charge. FRS only

Default This won't help much... I hate mine. They are weak, and eat batteries. However, I don't

recall the model number. They are Motorola.
