Amazon.com Product Description
This pair of small, lightweight Audiovox FR1538 two-way radios allows you to keep in touch with others within a range of up to two miles. With 14 channels and 38 privacy codes, this two-way radio screens out interference from other radios.

Packed with value, you also get NiMH battery packs for each radio, dual desktop charger, and 2 ear mics. The radios also receive 10 NOAA Weather Radio channels so you can be aware of the latest weather announcements.

The LCD display has a battery-level indicator to let you know when batteries are running low. The talk-confirmation tone lets the person on the other side know that it is clear for them to respond. Each radio is powered by the included NiMH battery packs or four AAA batteries (not included). Other features include Powersave circuitry, channel scan, a keypad lock, belt clip, and two ear microphones.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good choice for climbers (but not only), October 16, 2002

By	"ins_paul" (NY) - See all my reviews

These radios have everything I need:
- voice activation (first word needs to be loud)
- NOAA Weather
- compact size
I use them when rock climbing so I don't have to shout to my partner (especially useful in Gunks on crowded days).

So if you are not emotionally attached to Motorolas and features/price ratio is important to you, I recommend these radios. I give them 4 stars just because I've never used other radios so I've got nothing to compare them to. For my use they are 5 star radios.

1.0 out of 5 stars Better off with the Motorola 5200, February 22, 2002

By A Customer

One of these units was doa, and the menu system was incomprehensible. We ended up getting the Motorola 5200 and although the earpiece that came with the units is a waste we are very pleased with the price/performance/ease of the 5200s. Don't waste time with the audiovox. ...
