I don't like the charging light not turning green (or another color) when battery is fully charged. I also wish the backlight can be disabled in the menus. The menus are fairly intuitive, but the abbreviations may be a bit cryptic for the non-radio enthusiast.

The battery lasts about 24hrs of infrequent use and standby, which is very nice.
Volume gets nice and loud, and microphone sensitivity seems about right.
One of my radios has a fickle PTT switch, where you have to press it just so to stay on. If I had caught this sooner, I probably would have swapped it out. The option of using AA batteries is a nice plus, as the rechargable packs won't last forever.
Feature wise, there's not much to talk about. You can download the manual online and look it over. It has your basic channel settings, CTSS and Digital code squelch, adjustable power output. No memories or presets.
I would love to see the test that demonstrates "36 Miles" of range, but overstatement seems to be the norm for all of these.




They worked well in town within a mile or so, but there weren't many buildings blocking our radios, but I highly doubt they can really get 36 miles on an open flat space. They worked well enough for what we needed, but I am a little nervous about how long they will continue to function due to the quality control issue.




Over all...the battery should have lasted longer.



They were on for maybe one hour before one of them experienced speaker failure. At first we thought it was just the squelch or channel interference. After troubleshooting extensively (including plugging the ear piece into the one with the speaker issues and experiencing no problems with the ear piece) we concluded the speaker was shot.
No rhyme or reason for it, since they basically sat on the table near us all day.



For example at sea can have good communication
