Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Cobra PR260-2WXVP MicroTalk GMRS/FRS 2-Way Radios make it easy to stay in touch with someone, wherever you may go. This rugged pair of radios is an outdoorsman's best friend, with plenty of range, features, and power to make sure that you don't get separated from the rest of your party in any terrain.

The PR260-2WXVP MicroTalk radios use the UHF/FM band for ultra-clear, long-distance reception with an extended range capability that reaches up to 12 miles, depending upon the terrain. These units feature an easy-to-view, illuminated LCD display that provides the radio's status at a glance even at night, five separate call alerts to differentiate between incoming callers, and an on/off selectable roger-beep tone that indicates the completion of other transmissions so you know when it is ok to talk. These radios also feature an auto squelch that shuts off weak transmissions or unwanted noise due to terrain or range constraints, and a maximum range extender that overrides the auto squelch for longest-possible reception, as well as a keystroke tone signal that confirms key activation. Additionally, the PR260-2WXVP radios include 10 NOAA channels for full coverage of all government operated NOAA weather broadcasts, and have a scan function that allow user's to scan channels or privacy codes within a channel to locate conversations in progress.

The Cobra PR260-2WXVP radios provide seven GMRS/FRS, seven FRS and eight GMRS channels for a total of 22 channels, all of which are easily accessed via the front panel's push buttons. When combined with the units' 38 privacy codes, users have a choice of up to 836 sub-channels to ensure privacy. These radios are built with a unique circuit that automatically switches to battery-saver mode if there are no transmissions within 10 seconds, thereby extending the battery life, come with a belt clip to secure your MicroTalk while you are on the go, and include a key lock that eliminates accidental channel changes. For added convenience, these MicroTalk radios include a VOX function with five selectable levels of sensitivity, which will detect the user's voice and transmit without the need to press any buttons, freeing your hands for other tasks.

The PR260-2WXVPs run on four AAA rechargeable batteries (included) each, and come with an AC wall charger with a handy Y plug that allows you to recharge the batteries in both radios at once. Each radio has a built-in speaker/microphone/charger jack that lets you not only recharge batteries while in the unit, but use earphone speaker/microphone combinations for hands-free operation. The Cobra PR260-2WXVP MicroTalk Radios weigh only 2.8 ounces (without batteries), measure 2.3 x 5.9 x 1.5 inches (W x H x D), and are backed by a manufacturer's one-year warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Aweful Battery life, December 1, 2007
This review is from: Cobra MicroTalk PR 260-2 WX VP 12-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) (Electronics)
These were rated for 12miles - and if you've ever done any research on these type of 2-way radios...regardless of the rating, if you're able to get a 1 mile range from them, you're a lucky few. I fully expected that disappointment. However, what I did not expect was that the rechargeable batteries that it came with were aweful. On a full charge, it barely lasted a trip to the mall on less than mild usage. Btw...there is no indicator to say if it is fully charged. I charged it for the recommended 10 hrs. Anyway...I had another pair of refurb Uniden that I got for almost nothing...that pair was just as good, if not better than this one which I paid $45 including shipping. Not a recommendation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Buy, September 20, 2008
This review is from: Cobra MicroTalk PR 260-2 WX VP 12-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) (Electronics)
In my opinion the 260's are a great buy. I love mine, my wife and I use them all the time. The range that we have tryed so far is 1 mile in house and up the road they did fine no loss of reception the best feature of the cobras is the hands free talking I just love it I can work on a power panel and talk to someone at the circuit. I am an electrician by trade. The are lite and compact and they did not cost a arm and a leg. I think there the best deal for the money out there!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cobra MicroTalk PR 260-2 WX VP 12-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) (Electronics)
My needs were pretty close, about 1 mile. We were shuttling people, using 4 radios. Clarity was good, having to switch channels occassionally. Easy to use. We use for 6 hours at a time. In the future, I will carry spare disposable AA batteries if the rechargeable batteries lose charge.
