Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Best 2-way radio for rugged elk hunt

kellory,

That's WHY that I love the old-school commercial MIDLAND, GE & MOTOROLA radios, converted to the FM ham bands.
OR
The REALLY old Motorola & GE "rock-bound" mobiles are STILL USEFUL on industrial frequencies & in DUSTY/rough terrain.

FOR EXAMPLE: The 110W Midland 70 series of industrial transceivers has 80 channels (expandable to 160) & works well on 50-54 & 144-148 MHZ. - PC-programmable, too.

Also, both sorts of mobiles are tougher, as a mobile in a heavy-duty truck/Jeep/PU/car, "than a 2.oo steak".

yours, tex
