1 out of 5 stars Never again!.......2006-07-12

I am never buying from midland ever again after I bought this item! Terrible Item I THOUGHT it was going to have 40 channels but it only had 23! Do not buy this item!

1 out of 5 stars Not what you wanted!.......2001-07-30

I bought this radio on the bases it said it was usable with GMRS repeaters and had all of the ctcss codes. While this might be true, you can only use these features if the factory or a Midland Tech programmed it to do so. For the user who is used to doing his or her own programming and being able to change their radio as needed, this is not the radio for you, or me...

2 out of 5 stars Simply Poor.......2001-07-13

These radios seemed to be an attractive purchase given the rugged construction, their re-chargeable nature, and that they support both GMRS and FRS frequencies.

The fact is that there are no FRS compatible channels on these radios, that are evident. There is no mention of this capability in the owners manual that comes with each radio, which in itself is very poorly crafted.

Finally, each of the radios comes with a seperate charger. I ordered two radios with chargers. One didn't work at all.

Needless to say the were returned....

2 out of 5 stars Beware of this radio.......2001-07-11

Opon recieving this radio I have found that all of the sale litterateur fails to mention one thing; that all of the radios features, channel spacing, busy cannel lockout, scan attack, scan resume times, transmit time out timer, power save cycle time, and most of all the ctcss/dcs codes are NON-USER PROGRAMABLE. So I say what's the point of having a radio with repeater capabilities if the end user can not even program the ctcss/dcs codes without having to go find a Midland Tech. to program the radio becouse he's the only one who has the software and computer interface to do it. What happens the next time you want to change the codes? Or any of the other radio features? Buyer Beware.
