Cyclops, were you guys using the GXT-1050?
Cuz that's what I use, and have gotten a few miles outta them. From inside Clackamas town center, out to Gladstone. About 3.4 miles, with a bunch of crap in between.
Willing to bet they'll do more, cuz I always run them on the low battery feature.
Something good about them too, (and IDK if most radios have this or not) but in the instruction book it shows you what channels you can use without a permit, which is about half. (50 channel radio) That's why I'm usually on like channel 22.
As far as enforcement goes, if you don't cuz, or play music, you probably won't go to federal prison. I hear kids screwing around on the low channels all the time.
And where we typically use them, (woods vs city) I really don't think they care. Sure they'd have done somebody by now.
Although, I did just have the thought about using them at Action Acres. Wondering about cross contaminationwith the air traffic?
These also have whisper mode, do they have that on the fangs?
