3.0 out of 5 stars Great concept, so-so product, January 3, 2009

By	William D. Back (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We bought these based on the 20 mile range for a recent move. They were really helpful for chatting while on the road.

The drawback is that I have no idea where the ideal conditions really work. We tried these out in FL (very flat) at just a few miles and they didn't work. Since the grocery store locally is just a couple of miles away and my wife has a pay as you go cell phone, we had hoped these would replace day to day cell phone use, but so far no such luck. For short range, I recommend, but don't expect to get 20 miles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Radios, August 31, 2008

By	D. Krent (SF Bay Area) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased the T9680SAME radios about a month ago and took them on a long trip with a family of 4 that included the Grand Canyon and Philmont Scout Ranch. We used the radios to communicate with the kids to explore the areas and when my wife and I had to go in different directions. They helped a lot to keep the trip running smoothly. The voice quality is very good (as long as the volume is set just a bit lower than max). I also used them on a Cub Scout Pack hike so the lead to keep in touch with teh people bring up the rear - a nice way to keep the large group together and in sync. Overall the radios performed great! The only thing I did not test was the range limits. The weather info was a interesting but not extremely useful but we did not have any true weather emergencies.

5.0 out of 5 stars * * Incredible Reception T9680RSAME Motorola 2 Way Radio * * *, December 22, 2008

By	Armando Diaz "Thunder" (Monterrey, Mexico) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After have bought a Cobra LI-5600-2 DX VP Micro talk 20-Mile Range 2-Way Radio - 2 Pack, I have decided to return these to Best Buy Store, because it doesn't charge the lithium battery completely and additionally it has a bad reception between radios, so I have decided to buy a Motorola 2 Way Radio model T9680RSAME. It is a solid, comfortable and reliable 2 ways. It has a great sound and clear communication between radios in or out of the city. I live in Monterrey Mexico and I can communicate with them easily in anywhere (In Monterrey there are Mountains around the city). Great Radios and the cost it is cheap
