Title: Workable radios
Review: I have had these walkie talkies (Cobra PR 165-2 VP microTALK) for a couple months now. They work fairly well. Be aware that since this is a dual band radio you need to be careful what channel you transmit on if you don't have a license from the FCC. The manual tells which channels are FRS and which are GMRS.These radios are small and easy to carry. They work well for kids to use in a limited area.The range is closer to a half mile than the 6 miles they state. That's normal for FRS radios from what I hear. Near the end of the range the sound cuts in and out, and is hard to understand.One problem: on one of the radios the push to talk button is sensitive, it just barely works and you have to hold it just right or it cuts in and out.One irritation: you can't turn off the roger beep that gets sent after you talk, and it's really loud! If that doesn't bother you, these radios will work fine for you. If that's a problem, find a set that lets you turn the beep off.
