I bought one of these cheapies from these guys last year. Don't expect to receive any Smokey the Bear updates from truckers miles and miles away from ya. :D
Pretty good for things like Jeep trail rides, or hunting for example. Anything short-range would be well suited for these, if you don't have FRS radios...

I bought 2 because:

1. I needed a new toy (not really).
2. I didn't want to talk to myself.
3. I figured that 4 watts of power is better than my 1/2 watt frs, we'll see.

I got one of these and the range is pretty limited. Every once in a while hear some noise however and its neat when traveling distance on hgihways cause truckers will call out cops :D

I think somebody got to this first, there's a ton of these on ebay for roughly the same price.

I got mine, it's pretty awesome, we're at least a coule of miles off of I-225 here in Denver and I can pick up truckers clear as a bell on it. This is really going to be nice since we're going on a road trip to Georgia next week. Should be a nice way to pass the time. ;;)

One thing I noticed is that I think my unit was a refurb, as there's a small crack in the display glass. No biggie, works great, but anyone else notice anything with theirs that indicates that these are used?
