We do a lot of hiking etc... sometimes we will end up a mile or two apart with little to no reception which is how I ended up here.
I have applied for my license today and am going to go ahead and get these ordered in the meantime. Was looking at the wouxun KG-945g for the ip67 rating and ability to swap for better antennas and they seem well regarded.
Is there a better option here? Any thoughts or suggestions? Trying to stay under $300 for two radios.
Just looking for 2 radios for my wife and I. For camping, "overlanding", potential times of having to split up etc. Are 2 of the BTECH GMRS-V2 5W a good option for us? Was looking at Rocky Talkies GMRS option for simplicity and rugged design - just way too expensive. Again, looking for something sufficent, yet not junk. Thanks all.
A couple weeks ago I went down to the sand dunes with a crew and a lot of trouble could have been dealt with had we had a better way to communicate. I've been researching rugged radios to find that they are pretty subpar for the price. I have no problem piecing together something especially if there is a lot of information on it and if I can do it for half the price. I'm pretty new to gmrs But not afraid to learn as I'm pretty proficient with a lot of electronics.
The two biggest things I want are the intercom feature that rugged radios have. So that way I can talk with my passenger as being in a dune buggy. I have no Muffler and it's open cage. So that makes having a headset pretty important and being able to Bluetooth for music would also be a plus the second thing is I want to be able to use a radio for my party with said headset. So any suggestions on what to look for or where to start would be awesome. I appreciate you guys for your time!
