not for the GMR1038-2.......2007-04-05

Do not buy this for the GMR1038-2 or 2CK radios. It is not the right unit for that radio. I have no idea how well it works for the correct radio, but it did seem comfortable and low profile, like it would fit well under hearing protection. woops, duh, darn. I need to return it for either an HS910 or S915, which I don't see on Amazon.
I do not think Amazon should take advantage of dopes like me by listing this as "people who bought X also bought Y". I now know that is a bunch of bandini.

Product Description

With crystal-clear sound and the ability to talk with several friends, the ecoterra is the ultimate choice in affordable GMRS radio communications.

Amazon.com Product Description

Stay connected with your buddies while hiking on the trail, riding the ski lift, or exploring other locations within a 2-mile window with this pair of GMRS540 two-way radios. Boasting a smaller range than many of Uniden's other two-way radios, the GMRS540s are particularly ideal for casual communications, such as keeping in touch with pals at the ballpark, rather than strenuous activities that might require a lifesaving response.

Each radio features 22 channels (8 GMRS and 14 FRS) and 38 CTCSS privacy codes, along with a voice-activated transmitter that enables hands-free communication when teamed with an optional headset and mic (sold separately). The impressive range of channels and privacy codes gives you several communication options, ensuring that you can almost always talk with friends or family via an exclusive, uninterrupted signal (radios must be set on the same channel and code to communicate). It's easy to browse for channels thanks to the channel scan feature, which looks for active signals while you view the display, and the monitor function, which listens for weak signals on a given frequency. And talking on the radio couldn't be simpler--just hit the PTT button when you're ready to transmit. It's important to note that the transmission range will vary depending on the channel and the surrounding terrain.

Each GMRS540 radio also receives seven NOAA National Weather Service channels along with emergency/weather alerts. When in emergency/weather alert mode, the system functions as it does in GMRS/FRS mode, but also monitors the selected channel for tornado, thunderstorm, tsunami, and other weather warnings. When using the weather function, users can't receive GMRS communications, however.

The radios also include such features as a backlit LCD display with a battery strength meter, a keypad lock that keeps you from accidentally pressing buttons at the wrong time (such as when a radio is in your pocket), a headset jack, your choice of five different call tones, and an auto squelch function that shuts off weak transmissions and unwanted noise when you've reached your range limit. And no worries about running out of power too quickly, as the radios run for around 55 hours each on three AA batteries, and are also recharge-capable when teamed with optional NiMH battery packs and charging cradles (sold separately). The entire bundle, which includes two belt clips for efficient transport, is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

What's in the Box
Two GMRS540 two-way radios, two belt clips, user's manual.

Less expensive than a Nextel.......2005-12-08

I purchased this product several years ago because it's frequency codes were most compatible with its other products. Not so with other products. Also this had the NOAA weather feature, handy for hiking. Not only does this have 22 channels (1-14 FRS & 15-22 GMRS), but it has 38 privacy codes for each channel. The Amazon description is inaccurate with regard to range. This is a 1/2 mile (FRS) and maximum 2 mile (GMRS) unit. Two miles is ideal line of site, so if you can't be seen, your reception is reduced. I find that I can get approx 1/2 mile through houses, trees and hills in the neighborhood.
This is a fun toy for both me and my kids. It's better than any walkie-talkie. We use it between cars, in the mall, at the park, at the soccer tournament when one person is watching the younger child while the other is watching the older. It's also great when fixing something in the attic and having the switch turned off in the basement, or even in the office when coordinating a move. I plan on adding additional, more powerful units to this collection, maybe the Uniden GMR 1058.

Very Disapointing.......2003-12-04

Bought four of these this past summer. Best range we've experienced is about 1 mile. That was once and the planets must have all been aligned "just perfectly". Usually get only a 1/3 to 1/2 mile. Two of the four units lately are so staticy and garbled you can't carry on a conversation. As soon as I get a chance their getting shipped back to Uniden under warranty.

Nice product for the money.......2003-01-28

I picked up a pair of these and they seem to be pretty nice radios for the money. The subcodes are compatible with the Motorola, and the range similar to other FRS products. I have never tested GMRS range. The weather alert is a nice feature. I have a couple issues with the product, the volume is too low, which is offset by having the mic gain too high, so the radio works well with its pair, but people other brands of radios may not be very loud, and others brands may have trouble understanding you when you speak 1 inch from the mic (speak further away). Also the squelch release is slower than Motorolas and Kenwoods, so the first thing people say may get cut off. Still not a bad radio for the price.

Poor quality!.......2002-11-28

You get what you pay for. The range is not as listed on this website, plus you are REQUIRED to purchase a [$] (5 year) license to use this or ANY GMRS radio. These are poor quality toys!

Not 5-mile GMRS.......2002-08-22

This listing is incorrect. These are 1/2 watt, 2-mile units,
even in GMRS mode. The description says 5 miles in GMRS mode.
I returned the units untested when I learned this.
