1.0 out of 5 stars
how embarrassing for motorola!,
By
This review is from: Motorola TalkAbout T5820 R 5-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radios (Pair) (Electronics)
I picked up a pair of these just before a long roadtrip thinking that we could use them to talk between cars, but on every point they came up weak.Range: Even in GMRS mode these things couldn't talk between two cars no more than a half mile apart in clear sight of each other. Clarity: horrible - I couldn't understand the speech most of the time. Two other features that were troublesome were the inability to lock a channel/code combination and the big dumb volume control which invariably dialed down to zero every time we put the radios in our pockets. Battery: I picked up the optional two-radio drop-in charger and the batteries were NiCd instead of the much better and longer life (and no memory) NiMH that everyone else uses and the charger was a dumb trickle charger, not a smart charger that actually told you when the radios were charged. Conclusion: What a joke. If I were Motorola I'd track down everyone who bought these, apologize personally and give them a real radio and a real charging system. I'm going with Cobra next time, which is sad since my t6320 was such a great radio.

Horrendous audio quality/clarity,
By A Customer
This review is from: Motorola TalkAbout T5820 R 5-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radios (Pair) (Electronics)
Audio quality is so bad, it's nearly impossible to understand the caller. I bought a pair and promptly returned them. My advice: save yourself the return postage and choose a different pair.

A far cry from zero defect manufacturing.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Motorola TalkAbout T5820 R 5-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radios (Pair) (Electronics)
I am unfortunate enough to be able to review two sets of products. The first set I received, I returned because the radios did not communicate at all. One or both of the radios were clearly defective. The second set did work well at 100 paces or so. Actually we test them several times and the furthest we got them to work was less than 1/2 mile. As someone said, hardly the need to have to apply for a GMRS license. Another thing is the very tight fit of the rechargable battery pack. It is very difficult to remove the pack. The clerk pried one out with the blade of a knife and the other he used the same approach one uses to get ketchup out of the bottle. Finally, I can't help but pass on the advise I received from the clerk when I received the second set. He told me that if I was not pleased with the performance, to remove the rechargable batteries and use alkaline batteries. I admit that I have not tried this yet. It will not change my rating because one pays extra for the rechargable batteries. If this truly is a known fact as the clerk seems to imply, I will not reflect on the ethics of marketing a product where they charge you more for a feature that requires you not to use it for better performance. Overall, a very disappointing experience for a product made by a company whose brand use to stand for quality products.
