Are you talking FRS? If so, Motorolas are crap. Cobra and Icom are good bets.

Default Motorola radios are not crap! Have had my 3 for 2+ years and never had any problems

Most people get the Motorola's and when they don't is when they have trouble with static and connecting with everyone else.

Default John, call Bob Cenk at mountaindreams.com and talk to him

he will give you not only a great price, but also good advice.

(800) 553-0991 ask for Bob and tell them you are a TT owner from AudiWorld.

Default Yoikes. Okay, don't agree with me ;) I love motorola >>>

but I've heard that their FRS products are pretty poor.

I don't own any, to be fair.

Whatever you do, get the 5mile range one. Worth the extra 20 bucks.

Don't you have to register with the FCC to use the 5-mile range versions???
