Amazon.com Product Description
The Midland GXT850VP4 22-Channel 26-Mile GMRS 2-Way Radio Pair Pack with Rechargeable Batteries and Charger (Mossy Oak) represents the state-of-the-art in high-tech engineering, for a compact package that is big in performance. Skillfully constructed with the finest components, the Midland GXT850 is built with all solid-state circuitry mounted on a rugged, printed circuit board to provide you with reliable and trouble-free performance for years to come.

The Midland GXT850 radio provides you with 22 GMRS/FRS (General Mobile Radio Service/Family Radio Service) UHF channels, and up to a 26-mile range in open territory. In addition to the 22 possible channels, the GXT850 comes with 121 privacy codes to lessen interference or eaves-dropping, as well as all 10 NOAA weather channels and a NOAA weather alert function. These powerful radios have an easy-to-read backlit LCD display that shows status information at a glance even in difficult lighting, and a large easy-to-use keypad on the front for one-touch access to important features.

The GXT850 radio is full of features such as an outgoing call alert to notify your intended receiver of incoming traffic, and five incoming call alerts to identify various senders. This radio also features a channel scan for locating active channels, an auto squelch for filtering out weak signals, and a vibrating alert for use in both quiet and noisy environments. This unit provides High, Medium and Low power settings so you can choose to maximize transmission distance or save power, and a VOX function with selectable levels for voice-activated, hands-free transmissions. The GXT850 also includes keystroke tones, a roger beep that confirms transmission conclusion, and a silent operation for quieting beeps, tones and alerts when you can't afford to make extra noise.

Midland's GXT850 radio is constructed to be water proof to JIS4 specifications, so it can be used in virtually any environment, and has a keypad lock to avoid accidentally changing the radio settings. This radio runs on a Midland 4.8-volt rechargeable NiMH battery pack that can be recharged while in the radio, or can be powered by four AAA batteries during extended trips. This unit also includes a battery life extender function, as well as a low-battery indicator so you never get caught offguard without power. The GXT850 comes with a speaker/microphone/headset/charging jack so you can use it with an external speaker or microphone, or a pair of headphones, and recharge your battery pack when not in use. The Midland GXT850VP4 pack comes with two radios, each with a belt clip for convenient carrying or hands-free use, as well as two rechargeable NiMH battery packs, an AC wall adapter, and a dual radio desktop charger. These radios come with mossy-oak, break-up camouflage face plates, and are backed by a manufacturer's three-year warranty.

5 out of 5 stars Good product and performance   June 6, 2008
Works very well. Be careful putting it down when in the woods... you will lose it because of the camoflauge color.

I have lost one already due to the camoflaug color but I hope to have solved that by wrapping florescent orange tape around the antenna.

Range is very good. Battery life is also good. I wish light on the chargers would go out when the batteries are charged but it doesn't.



5 out of 5 stars Best GMRS radio set   May 29, 2008
This is the best GMRS radio set there is out there.
Between buildings 1 mile in line of sight (only a vieuw houses and trees in between) in the mountains in Austria 10 miles with very good reception.

I recommand this product.

I BOUGHT THESE TO TAKE WITH ME ON A CRUISE. THEY WORKED VERY GOOD. THERE WERE SOME "DEAD SPOTS" ON THE SHIP. WE HAD A GROUP OF 20 PEOPLE AND WE HAD 6 2-WAY RADIOS. IT WAS AN OVERALL GOOD PURCHASE. I DONT BELIEVE THEY WILL CONNECT 26 MILES AWAY BUT A MUST HAVE FOR CRUISING.


4 out of 5 stars Great Radios   May 12, 2008

Very good pair of radios for the $$. Naturally the range is not exactly what they claim it is, but works well enough in close range. Battery life seems pretty decent so far. I had a 2 different pairs of Unidens, and they were worthless. Midland makes a much better 2-way product. Easy to use; easy to program. I already have a GMRS license, but don't forget you legally need one to use the GMRS freq's. They also have voice scramble which is a nice feature. The radios are fairly rugged too. Great for outdoor use. I definitely recommend them.

This works great for what I use it for, and that is vehicle to vehicle communication while traveling. About the farthest apart we ever get is just under 2 miles. A great surprise in the package was a car charger for the radios. I hadn't noticed it was included. I would have preferred black instead of camo, but the color wouldn't stop me from buying it. I highly recommend this radio. I diligently shopped and read specifications of many radios before choosing this one and am quite happy with it.
