GXT1000VP4 radios operate on radio frequencies that are regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC); license and fees required. The communication range quoted is calculated based on an unobstructed line of sight test under optimum conditions. Actual range will vary depending on terrain and conditions, and is often less than the maximum possible. Your actual range will be limited by several factors including, but not limited to: terrain, weather conditions, electromagnetic interference, and obstructions. Please note: Motorola 2-way radios can be shipped to U.S. and Canada only.

      Comments about Midland GXT1000VP4 2-Way Radios - 2 Pack:

      After testing some cruddy Motorola radios (see separate review) that failed, these Midland's were a refreshing delight.

      We had coverage all the way up to and over the crest leading to Mt. Whitney, with excellent reception and quality.

      At one point, we began to get some cross chatter from other climbers, and simply enabled the Group feature and had just direct communication with no other parties for the rest of our trip.

      The batteries lasted for days on end, the weather alert function is very cool and the fact that it comes with a car charger is a huge help.

      I would hands down recommend these again and again as the best radios that REI carries.
