Default [ OT ] FRS radios / 2-way radios


"Marshall" wrote in message

Hi:

I looking to buy a pair of FRS radios & wondering if anyone could
recommend a good brand / model?
I would want one of the 5 mile range, rechargeable models. At least
I 'think' I want to go rechargeable?? Is there a noticable difference
in weight between them and the 'regular battery' models? These would be
used 1-2 times per month, and have to operate up to maybe 10-12 hours
on standby. Actual talking time would be minimal. Just want to be able
to contact eachother inside of a 3-story building. Thanks for any advice.

The problem is that when they run out in the middle of using them you can't
recharge them easily. Make sure that whatever you get that they will
accommodate akalines as well so that you can have a set just for backup.
