Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good product
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 ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good For the Money
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...



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Best price bargain for this 18 Mile 2 Pack GMRS/FRS Radios
Compare to other 18 Mile 2 Pack GMRS/FRS Radios this bargain price here is best! And the product is nice features, works good in reception, but the FRS range is only about a half mile. Because the FCC's rules, the range of FRS radios is typically limited to a half mile or less.(to get "UP" to 18 miles you need a license from the FCC to use them).
Can heard also those using hi channels or GMRS on scan clearly. Batteries can use an hour while in use.
Overall a good value.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Uniden GMR1838-2CK 2-Way 18 Mile 2 Pack GMRS/FRS Radios
Poor reception and distance. At one mile in normal conditions reception was unclear. Over water and some land distance was down to 1/2 mile approximately and very static. Upon purchase I charged the batteries as stated in instructions and only received about 4 hrs worth of use and no talking during that time. Camping this weekend one radio battery went dead in less than one hour and this is after a full charge the day before. For the price you can't go wrong, for the quality well.... it's up to you!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Couldn't beat the price
I bought the pair with re-chargable batteries and the charger included for 19.99.All 16-26 mile 2-ways are about the same as far as distance.About a mile.It's possible the GMRS channels I heard on scan were much further away since they were talking about looking for street names located miles away from my home.This radio works just as good inside for picking up transmissions as it dose outside,if not better!I dropped one the other day and it still works fine.Iam not sure how long the charged radio last ...
