Rocky Talkie 5-Watt Backcountry GMRS Radio 

I'm glad you finally got your GMRS licensee. I was telling you about 4-5 years ago that it would be helpful when traveling. In my opinion you should get a mobile radio for at least Orangie with a permanent antenna. It can extend the range of your signal. Plus as you pointed out they are repeater friendly. The are several repeater groups in that area. CHEERS from Colorado

Thanks for sharing im considering a set of portable GMRS for my adventurs. Cheers

Great video. Very informative. Over and out.

cool product.... safe travels.

Thanks for guidance

putting an external connection on your jeep would really help maximize distance. that's what ive done with my ham radio

Great content. Very helpful!

Brother how many miles are on that Rubicon? I haven't watched ya in years

Hey that's great little radio. I'm just wondering do they sell them in Canada or will they work up here? I don't know anything about them but yeah they look good especially for you guys out there in the middle of nowhere. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

Why is a license require?

There is an issue for this radio that casual users should be aware of. If you're just using them for your own group, where everybody has the same model radio it's not a problem. But if other people have different model GMRS radios, interoperability could be a big problem if you want to use the CTCSS/DCS privacy codes (which aren't really private; they just prevent you from hearing other users that are not using your tone). The codes that this company uses for CTCSS/DCS are NOT the same as Midland, although there is some crossover, and not the same as the industry-standard. So if I have channel 16 code 55 set on a Midland and you have channel 16 code 55 set on a Rocky Talkie they won't hear each other. What I'm NOT sure of is whether these tones are set by default or completely optional out of the box. If they are set as a default, and everybody in your traveling party has different models of GMRS radio, it will be a major issue. Instead, I would recommend the Wouxon line of GMRS radios. They use industry-standard CTCSS/DCS tone nomenclature, and are 100% easily interoperable with every other GMRS radio. And they're about the same money, or less. - WRJB851 and also ham since 1979 who worked for years in a 2-way service shop.

Just like every FRS radio no true 5 watt just get a pofong

$165 each - not a pair. That is very expensive for a handheld gmrs radio that only has 5 watts.
