This pair of orange and black X-Talker T51VP3 22-Channel Two-Way UHF Radios from Midland are 22-channel radios designed to provide quick communication. Each radio has buttons for easy adjustments of volume, channel selection, menu, and more. The monitor button allows you to quickly adjust incoming transmission volume, while the scan button rapidly scans all channels for incoming transmissions, stopping at the first channel for six seconds with a current transmission before continuing to scan. With this radio, users can also take advantage of CTCSS (Continuous Tone-Coded Squelch System) to communicate privately using one of the 38 privacy codes. Two rechargeable 700mAh battery packs and a drop-in charging station are included to conveniently charge both radios simultaneously.

Q: 9. I see that I would need an FCC license. How do I get this license. Can I buy and operate these with out a license? Thanks

A: As per the Midland GXT1000VP4 manual: "The radios operate on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) frequencies which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) license. You must be licensed prior to operating the radio. Serious penalties could result from unlicensed use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules, as stipulated in the Communications Acts Sections 501 and 502 (amended). You will be issued a call sign by the FCC which should be used for station identification when operating the radio on GMRS channels. You should also cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only, avoiding channel interference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of your transmission time. To obtain a license or ask questions about the license application, contact the FCC at 1-888-CALL FCC or go to the FCC's website: http://www.fcc.gov and request form 605."

Q: 10. What is the transmit power watts ?

A: The T77VP5 is rated a little under 2 watts, so it can be sold into Canada as well as the US.
