Motorola Gmrs Radio Review

Awesome GMRS radio! I plan to purchase another one soon.

This is my first GMRS radio. I tested this in urban setup although intent is for overlanding. So my review is partial but so far I love it. I was able to communicate with my X-Talker 71V crisp and clear over an acceptable range of 6-8 miles. Keep in mind this was in a complete urban setup with lot's of building, trees and other obstacles, so line of sight was pretty dense. I think this micro mobile pairs very well with the X-Talkers. It's compact enough to fit in my Outback I'm waiting to use it for the primary purpose (overlanding/camping). I'm pretty confident it will like a charm.

Awesome little gmrs radio that is well built. Perfect for offroading

I have been running cb’s for years and this GMRS radio was easy to set up and start using.

This radio ws exactly what I was looking for. My 4x4 club has gone to GMRS and this fits the bill perfectly!

These are perfect compliments to the GMRS Radio I installed in our Jeep. Range is exceptionally good. Battery life is excellent. Clarity of sound is great.

i have had every single frs/gmrs radio and it never reached 7 blocks but these radios reached 7 blocks on city clear

The GXT67 Pro is a Home Run for Midland! Full 5 watts, waterproof & dust proof, noise cancelling Mic, long battery life, repeater capable, 50 channels of GMRS/FRS right out of the box with another 49 available with the optional PC interface that also allows you to custom name your channels with up to 8 characters. Rugged design, with a large display that fits nicely in your hand gives this radio more of a traditional look and feel. For those who use repeaters, it is both narrow and wide band capable although most repeaters are wide band. Ten NOAA weather channels with weather alert are a bonus but some of the more notable features are the 10 Groups with 143 Group Godes, Privacy Codes, CTCSS, DCS, VOX and so much more. The icing on the cake is the top-quality carry case that cradles the GXT67 Pro and accessories keeping them safe from loss and damage. Ok, so it’s loaded with features that everyone wants but how does it work. GREAT! The 5 watts gives much greater talk power than much of the competition. Distance when used in a vehicle compared to lower power units is double and hitting repeaters in the Phoenix Metro area has been easy. And while it is pricy compared to those clam shell packaged ones, it has the feel and features of a quality Ham walkie costing much more. You will find out quickly that it is well worth the cost based on quality, features and performance. The GXT67 Pro is truly a professional grade GMRS portable radio.

First off please realize that CB and Ham users are a bit threatened by GMRS. Why? because for Ham users this radio makes it easy to talk to anyone with a no test license. Yes with GMRS you are to have a license even for the the blister pack radio that people get at Wal-mart. Now with a license it last 5 years and covers everyone in the home. Now Midland has broken the ice by releasing the MXT115 and the MXT400 because now it allows anyone to have a high power radio that can connect to greater distances of up 70 miles with a repeater an up to 30 miles barefoot without a repeater. With the MXT115 radio more like 12-15 miles barefoot and 15-40 miles with a repeater. However do not expect these distances with the stock antenna. The release of these 2 new powerful radios finally allows the GMRS signal to be taken seriously and truly have an option for point to point communication. so ditch the blister pack radio garbage and get a real radio. Lastly this radio will still allow communication to those blister pack radios as well.

I have two Kenwood mobiles I use on GMRS and love this desk mic. I don't like holding the hand mic so I got this. Very clear modulation and was simple plug and play. Thinking of getting second mic so as not to keep changing mic from radio to radio.
