Product Features:

Product Description
Uniden is creating a World Without Wires. Which means that Uniden is building products that give its customers more freedom to enjoy life, solve problems and always stay connected with others. From cordless phones to two-way radios to radar detectors, the company makes electronic wonders an everyday occurrence. As one of the world's largest manufacturers of cordless phones and consumer communications devices, chances are there's a Uniden product that's already making things more convenient in and around your home.PRODUCT FEATURES: General Mobile Radio (GMR); Range Transmits Up to 8 Miles; PowerBoost Key; 22 Channels; 38 CTCSS Privacy Codes; Backlit LCD Display; Battery Strength Meter; NOAA Weather Channels; Keypad Lock; Channel Scan; Channel Monitor; 5 Call Tones; Roger Beep; Belt Clip Included; Recharge Capable; Charging Cradle with 2 NiMH Batteries; Headset Jack.Amazon.com Product Description
Uniden's GMR885-2CK includes a pair of lightweight, palm-sized General Mobile Radio Service radios. Use them to maintain contact with family and friends at sporting events or while hiking, skiing, outdoors, or use them as critical tools in a neighborhood watch. These compact, state-of-the-art devices are equipped with many features.Each GMR885-2CK radio is equipped with a user-selectable Voice Operated Transmitter (VOX) that you can use for hands-free voice transmissions when used with an optional headset and microphone (the Uniden HS2467). Transmission is initiated by speaking into the remote microphone instead of by pushing the PTT button.
The GMR885-2CK radios can also receive weather broadcasts from the NOAA National Weather Service. In weather-radio-alert mode, the system functions as it does in GMRS mode, but also monitors the selected weather channel for alerts when not communicating. While using the weather radio, you will not be able to receive GMRS communications.
Each radio works on 22 channels (15 GMRS, 7 FRS) and offers 38 CTCSS privacy codes you can use when talking with members of your party. In order to speak to someone, each of you must be set to the same channel and CTCSS code.
Channel scan lets you easily scan all 22 channels. When an active channel is detected, the radio will pause on that channel until the channel is clear. Then, after a 2 second delay, the radio will continue scanning. To transmit on a given channel, press the PTT button or power-boost button while the scan is paused on your desired channel.
A unique circuit dramatically extends the life of the batteries. If there is no transmission or incoming call within 3 seconds, the radios will switch to power-save mode. (They may still receive transmissions in this mode.)
Other features include a backlit LCD, keypad lock, channel monitor, a choice of 5 different call tones, and a roger beep.
Power the radios using the supplied rechargeable NiMH battery packs or 4 AAA alkaline batteries each (not included). If you use the rechargeable NiMH battery packs, the 2 radios can be charged simultaneously using the charging cradle. Each radio has a battery-level meter on its display to indicate the status of the batteries.
What's in the Box
Two GMR885 radios, 2 rechargeable NiMH battery packs (#BP38), an AC power adapter (#AC6248), a charging cradle (#RC8348), 2 belt clips, and a user's manual.

Cool.......2005-03-12
works up to 4-6 miles apart on sunny day with little obstrucions like trees, houses, bulildings, etc.
Kid's toy ?.......2005-03-07
Great radios, NOAA Weather channels are handy.......2005-02-04
We hadn't had a chance to really test them until recently, and we were both impressed with their performance. We haven't tested the range out in the flat, wide open, but we were able to get a range of about 2 miles in the moderate hills, trees, and buildings in town.
The NOAA Weather option is pretty nice, especially when you want to get a quick, area-specific forecast. The weather alert feature would also come in handy to let you know when bad weather is coming your way.
The reason we chose these specific radios was because of the good reviews from others here at Amazon, and I'm happy to say that they steered us in the right direction. There are other features that might have been nice to have - vibrating alert, or hands-free headphone/speaker set - but these radios contained the most of the features we were looking for. We're not disappointed.
Best tested yet........2005-01-24
Our team has tried motorola radios, audiovox and magnavox. All of which my kids now use. Motorola does not hold a candle to these Uniden radios.
So far I am pleased with the durability and range, but I can not find ANY printed statement of the power output. It just says "up to 8 miles" which we know is not going to happen. I hope this is a 4 watt radio, but I somehow doubt it. Probably 3. The fact that they dont even say makes me wonder if it is less.
Still, with the NOAA reciever these are far better than COBRA which cost alot more and work as well as my kids old power-rangers walkie talkies.
One complaint though, on the smaller uniden radio gmr325-2 the keypad lock has a single keystroke to lock and unlock. On this radio you have 6 keypresses to lock and then you havev to turn off the radio to unlock. On other brands, and other unidens this is not so. And on Motorola you can resume the keypadlock even after powering on and off. But that is not enough to make motorola radios worth buying over this unit.
BTW, someone here tried to compare these to HAM radio. That is not a valid comparison and I dont think he knew what he was talking about.
Im only giving them 4 stars becasue they failed to tell me the actual wattage of this radio. So I cant say if its a 5 star product now can I?
Where are the accessories???.......2005-01-10

As one of the world's largest manufacturers of cordless phones and consumer communications devices, chances are there's a Uniden product that's already making things more convenient in and around your home.PRODUCT FEATURES:General Mobile Radio (GMR);Range Transmits Up to 6 Miles;22 Channels;38 CTCSS Privacy Codes;Backlit LCD Display.Amazon.com Product Description
Stay connected with your buddies while hiking on the trail, riding the ski lift, or exploring other locations within a 6-mile range with this pair of GMR645 two-way radios. Also ideal as a neighborhood watch tool and workplace aid, each radio features 22 channels (15 GMRS and 7 FRS) and 38 CTCSS privacy codes, along with a voice-activated transmitter that enables hands-free communication when used with an optional HS 2467 headset and microphone. 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).Browsing for channels is straightforward and intuitive thanks to the scan feature, which looks for active channels while you view the display, and the monitor function, which listens for weak signals on a given channel. To transmit on a GMRS or FRS channel, merely press the PTT button while the scan is paused. It's important to note that the transmission range will vary depending on the channel and the surrounding terrain.
Each GMR645 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 alert function, users can't receive GMRS communications, however.
Additional features include 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, a roger beep, and your choice of five different call tones. The radios come with a single charging cradle that can accommodate both radios at once, two NiMH rechargeable battery packs, and two belt clips for efficient transport. The entire bundle is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

Customer Reviews:
These are fine 2-way radios.......2007-03-25
Nice features:
- come with chargers & 2 batteries (NiMH) - real nice.
- NOAA weather channels
- they are durable & they hold a charge for a couple of days under normal use
- they are small, but not too small
- the key layout is easy to use and hard to hit by accident (volume up/down doesn't get bumped to zero by accident!).
- the radios can be on and used when charging
- they are fun to have and easy to use
- price is right
Not so nice:
- the chargers aren't interchangeable with the 10 mile Uniden radios (model number GMR1038-2)
- take 16hrs to fully charge
- menus aren't intuitive. Keep the manual handy! (For most uses you don't have to use the menus)
- line of sight. If a straight line to your target is obstructed, you probably can't talk to them (that is the type of radios these are - not an issue specific to this model)
Range - line of sight radios are fickle. I have only used these on the low power FRS channels (8-14 are low power channels and don't require an FCC license to use). I have had intelligible conversations at 4.3 miles (as a crow flies) on low power. And I have lost radio contact at 1/4 mile on other occasions.
Fine radios at a fine price.
Nice features, but poor range.......2006-05-16
You get to weather radios and that's about it........2004-08-05
The weather radio works well, and really, for the $39 I paid, I received two fairly good weather radios. That's about it. I'm just glad I bought the units with the NOAA weather radio, otherwise I'd have nothing better than the walkie-talkies I had when I was a little kid.
Good value.......2004-06-23
Think twice before buying this product........2004-05-28
