So I've been looking at some 30 mile + handheld radios and am a bit surprised that some are under $100. Here's an example:
Amazon.com: Motorola MR350RVP 2-Way FRS/GMRS Radio, Value Pack: Electronics
I guess I expected something more costly or the answer to be 'ham radio' or, 'that's beyond line of sight'. It's ironic that my father was an Army Colonel in the signal corps at one point and I have no clue about this stuff (I remember being in his office and he had a pogo stick with a radio strapped to it as a joke) I guess it's not genetic [sad2]
I'm really just looking for something hand held, long range, and reliable. Any thoughts?
