A waste of your hard earned cash........2001-07-24
There is no reason or advantage to owning one of these radios. If someone is looking seriously at GMRS they will be terribly disappointed with this radio for following reasons:
No removable antenna. No provision for an external antenna that is legal on GMRS.
Battery life is pathetic.
Actual output power is only .99 watt making it a sad improvement over most FRS radios.
Communicating with legacy GMRS systems will prove frustrating and almost impossible in most cases.
Case construction is very poor. This radio will break.
It is not a 5-mile radio as advertised.
It is NOT an FRS radio. It has only the first seven channels used by FRS.
If you operate the VoxBox on FRS channels you MUST have an FCC license and you must use the call sign issued to you by the FCC.
It is for personal use only.
You can only use it in the USA on the ground.
Audiovox says right on the packaging that these radios are excellent for municipalities and job sites. GMRS is a radio service for personal licensees. Businesses and government agencies have not been eligible to use these channels since 1987. The marketing message on the outside of the bubble-pack places unsuspecting customers in jeopardy of violating FCC rules and subject to heavy FCC fines.
It is illegal to use the VoxBox GMRS radio in other countries. The VoxBox is NOT an FRS radio. You cannot use the VoxBox in Canada even on the first seven GMRS Interstitial (FRS) channels. You can be fined and/or arrested if caught using your GMRS radio anyplace other than the United States.
Hope that helps,
Allen
