Amazon.com Product Description:
The Cobra Li6500-2WXVP MicroTalk GMRS/FRS 2-Way Radios make it easy to stay in touch with someone, wherever you may go. This rugged pair of radios is an outdoorsman's best friend, with plenty of range, features, and power to make sure that you don't get separated from the rest of your party in any terrain.

The Li6500-2WXVP MicroTalk radios utilize the UHF/FM band for ultra-clear, long-distance reception with an extended range capability that reaches up to 20 miles, depending upon the terrain. These units feature an illuminated LCD display that is easily visible at a glance even at night, 10 separate call alerts to differentiate between incoming callers, and an on/off selectable roger-beep tone that indicates the completion of other transmissions so you know when it is ok to talk. These radios also feature an auto squelch with a selectable maximum range extender that overrides the auto squelch for longest-possible reception, a keystroke tone signal that confirms key activation, and a patented VibrAlert for silent incoming calls in noisy or all-quiet environments. Additionally, the Li6500-2WXVP radios include 10 NOAA channels for full coverage of all government operated NOAA weather broadcasts, a scan function to locate conversations in progress, and a 10-channel memory for programming favorite channels or channel/privacy code combinations for easy retrieval.

The Cobra Li6500-2WXVP radios provide seven GMRS/FRS, seven FRS and eight GMRS channels for a total of 22 channels, all of which are easily accessed via the front panel's push buttons. When combined with the units' 121 privacy codes, users have a choice of up to 2,662 sub-channels to ensure privacy. These radios are built with a unique circuit that automatically switches to battery-saver mode if there are no transmissions within 10 seconds, thereby extending the battery life, and let you choose between High, Medium and Low power settings (GMRS only) to either maximize range or further extend your battery life. What's more, they come with a belt clip to secure your radios while you are on the go, and include a key lock that eliminates accidental channel changes. For added convenience, these MicroTalk radios include a VOX function with five selectable levels of sensitivity, which will detect the user's voice and transmit without the need to press any buttons, freeing your hands for other tasks.

The Li6500-2WXVPs each run on an ultra-compact, high-capacity rechargeable, lithium-ion battery, and come with a two-port desktop charger that allows you to recharge the batteries in both radios at once. Each radio has a built-in speaker/microphone/charger jack that lets you not only recharge batteries while in the unit, but use earphone speaker/microphone combinations for hands-free operation. Constructed to be water resistant for improved outdoor reliability, the Cobra Li6500-2WXVP MicroTalk Radios weigh only 3.2 ounces (without batteries), measure 2 x 5.5 x 1.5 inches (W x H x D), and are backed by a manufacturer's one-year warranty.

Customer Reviews

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating:

- Great 2-way radio
This is a quality 2-way radio. 20 miles is a little ridiculous, but the range is very good. In real world conditions (buildings, trees, etc.), the range is approximatley 2 miles. Any standard 2-way radios will get no more than a 2-mile range. This is the only reason I didn't rate these 5 stars.

The sound quality is excellent, the privacy codes are a nice feature and the size is perfect.

I highly recomment this product.

Rating:

- Bad performance
20-Mile Range is just a joke. No more than half a mile. I tested it out at different conditions(beach, forest, city, shopping mall). The best usage at shopping mall, but in this case you don't need to buy product for $60.
When you press buttom to talk, it's not ready to work immediately and people on the other side are not able to hear you.

Rating:

- bad for headsets
if you want a decent headset one that works with a helmet for get it because this has a single pin connection and helmet headsets all that i found were two pin connections the radio itself works greats but not much in the line of helmet headsets

Rating:

- Very good quality, difficult control
I am very well pleased with these, but I would have appreciated a more prominant notification that HIGH power and most channels require an FCC license, which cost me $80!
Also, the control could be better. Switching from standby to weather radio, for instance, requires repeated pushing of the 'mode' button.
The power is good, but apparently is line-of-site, as I could not reach home today from two miles away with intervening hills.
But they will work for what we intend with them -
