    I was considering buying some as well. We don't need much range.

    GMRS/HAM are on my "I'll get to that eventually" list.

    These are what I have: https://www.rei.com/product/115303/motorola-t460-2-way-radios-pair

    But you can spend a lot less and get the same-ish. I just liked the frequency range they supported, weather service, and weather proof.

    Can different brands get into the same channel to communicate?

    100%

    edit: “100%” may not convey this accurately. Short answer is yes. Long answer is it depends on the radios :)

    Well in that case maybe I'll order some tomorrow. 20+ mile ranges walkies aren't very pricey.

    You aren't going to get 20 miles of range from those handheld walkies. More like 5, could even be as low as 2 or 3. GMRS radios also require a license from the FCC to operate, $70 for a 10 year license.

    If it's only an FRS radio the real world range could be as low as 1-2 miles.

    Edit: I'll be at the Enumclaw Safeway by 8:30.

    This. Even if we just used them for spotting, they're handy. Plus its fun.

    Edit: sounds good, I'll plan to be there as well

    I'm in North Bend so I'd meet in Enumclaw.

    I have a CB and a dozen Boafengs that support FRS/GMRS frequencies.

    :eek:
    @JDAM
    Would you be willing to share those Boafengs? Or is the rental fee donuts/a six-pack?

    @WrecklessAbandon

    I'd be up for convoying from Issaquah. If we time it right we can probably sneak behind JDAM as he heads down 18 :rofl:
