Great little transceiver
Customer Rating: 
This Midland Radio came as advertised. Although it is a cheap unit compared to other handheld radios, it is very durable and works great. When in the open with the supplied antenna the range is very far. Obviously if you need long range while inside a building or vehicle an external antenna always works better, and can be ordered here on amazon or bought at any electronics store for less then $30 with the BNC converter.
Pros:
Low Cost.
Good Range.
Loud Speaker.
Cons:
Channel selection buttons & PTT are to close together, have to get used to it.
Uses 9AA batteries, rechargeable batteries included would have made it allot better along with a wall plug, but for traveling it is fine with the included 12v car adapter.
