4.0 out of 5 stars Good little Radio's Range is Nice, January 1, 2003

This review is from: Audiovox FR5312 2-Mile 14-Channel FRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) (Electronics)

This is my 2nd pair of frs radio's. The other set was a uniden set which lasted over 2 yrs. I have had this pair for almost 2 weeks now. They are simple to use. Easy on and off buttons, push buttons for channel change and volume control. Range has been tested to about 1 mile flat line of sight. It was clear as if you were only a couple feet away. If you are looking for a simple set of talkies, this is the way to go. The only thing I didn't like was the warranty was only 90 days.

I think for someone who only wants simple talkie function. This is the way to go. There are others that have tons of bells and whistles, but this set is simple to use. 14 Channel easy to select. Pretty much pop the batteries in and set channel and go.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fair entry level FRS, September 28, 2002

This review is from: Audiovox FR5312 2-Mile 14-Channel FRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) (Electronics)

I bought these during a recent trip to Canada where I had used them mainly up to date. It looks to me that, even if it includes just entry level functions, it provides a very good sound quality at very good price. I had used them only in a range of about 1.0-1.5 km but also in plain land and in the mountains and in this range I had never tx/rx problems.
