The range is great. We've used them in downtown, urban environments. At one event held at the Grand Hyatt, we could communicate with the ballroom from suite on the 20th floor with no static. Very impressive.



great range, several valleys and hill's inbetween myself and brother, worked great
brightly illuminated display, easy push buttons, even with gloves on

That's another for me!

Furthermore, after a few times in the field, one of the radios died (would not turn on). It was not the battery, as the battery on the other unit still worked, and I tried changing it out. I called Midland to get some help and played phone tag with them multiple times. When I finally got someone, she said to put alkaline batteries in it, and if that didn't work, just take it back to the store.
I understand that lemons happen, but it's disappointing nonetheless.

So, my only gripe with the units is the battery life. The rechargeable batteries that come with the unit, even fully charged, don't last more than 4 hours of continual use. So, the next time we went up on the mountain, I brought along disposable batteries to pop into the units, once the rechargeables ran out. It isn't a huge problem, but it would have been nicer if the batteries lasted at least 8 hours. When I said 4 hours of continual use, I did mean it, however. The throat mics pick up most noises you make, opening a broadcast channel even if you aren't talking. So, I am aware my use of the throat mic ran the batteries down faster than if I was using the PTT button method, so bear that in mind when you read this.
Overall, 4 stars.


The very first day on the water, I dropped one overboard and it took a minute to retrieve it, but it floated, and it even worked for a few minutes before it cut out and died. Later I opened the battery casing and dried it out in a bowl of rice. It worked just fine again with no probs. I would have given this product a 5 star, but it wasn't fully waterproof. Probably ok in wet weather I'm guessing. This is the 2nd pair of Midlands I've owned in 10 yrs and the other pair works fine accept for the rechargeable batteries- I use disposable ones now as it no longer holds a good charge. Midland makes a solid product.
