Motorola SX700R Talkabout GMRS/FRS 2-Way Radios with Charger, (Pair)

Product Description

With a range of up to 12 miles and loaded with features, you know that with the SX700R you are ready for the extreme outdoors. Lightweight and rugged, with side grips to help you hold on, and a holster to provide you with quick access, the SX700 is built to handle virtually any challenge without weighing you down. Acting as a speakerphone, the iVOX hands free communication allows you to use your hands for other activities while keeping in touch. Tune into a NOAA channel (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) on your SX700 for continuous local and regional weather broadcasting. And when you are out having fun, weather alerts will provide you with warnings of incoming weather to protect from the dangers of a sudden storm. To prevent cluttered channels, the SX700 has a full 22-channel capacity each with 121 privacy codes, creating 2,662 combinations. Additionally, Priority scan quickly finds the most private channel in crowded environments, and with the QT (Quiet Talk) interruption filter enabled, radios from other manufacturers can't be heard on your channel ensuring a private conversation for your group. The SX700 also has a Motorola exclusive feature ??companding?? a sophisticated digital technology that filters out static between words. This allows the radio to deliver noticeably clearer transmission.

Amazon.com Product Description

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts who often get separated from their groups, such as mountain bikers, serious hikers, and whitewater rafters, this pair of Motorola rechargeable two-way radios keeps you connected from up to 12 miles away (based on terrain and conditions). The wide-ranging signal also works for more pedestrian tasks, such as keeping tabs on the kids while they're playing at a friend's house or calling your pals in the lodge while you're skiing on the slopes. Each radio comes equipped with 22 channels--including eight GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service), seven FRS (Family Radio Service), and seven GMRS/FRS combo channels--giving you plenty of frequencies on which to communicate. The radios also receive a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration channel, which delivers up-to-the-minute storm warnings--a must for mountain climbers. And thanks to the rugged housing, convenient side grips, and included holsters, you'll enjoy quick, constant access to the radios in the midst of almost any activity.

To ensure that your conversation is always between you and your mates, Motorola included 121 privacy codes, which, when added to the 22 channels, gives you 2,662 options for exclusivity. The Priority Scan function lends a hand by searching for the most private channels in crowded environments, as does the Quiet Talk feature, which filters the signals from other radios to ensure an interruption-free conversation. And unlike the walkie-talkies of old, the Talkabout's signal is always strong, employing a Motorola-exclusive digital technology to filter out the static between words. This allows the radio to deliver noticeably clearer transmissions. Other bonuses include 10 distinct call tones, so your group can identify who's calling at a given time, along with a talk confirmation tone that lets others know when you've finished talking.

All Motorola two-way radios are also designed with compatibility in mind. The radios can communicate with other Talkabout models when set to the same channel/code sequence, or with competitors' products provided the channel and code sequences are compatible. Additional features include a backlit LED display that's easy to read even in dark environments, an audible low battery alert and battery meter, a keypad lock, and a VibraCall vibrating alert.

The SX700R radios come ready for recharging, with a pair of Motorola NiMH battery packs and a dual desktop charger. The battery packs offer approximately 7 hours of two-way use per charge. As an alternative, users can pop in a quartet of AAA alkaline (high capacity) batteries.

Note:
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires that operators on General Mobile Service (GMRS) and Private Land Mobile (PLM) frequencies obtain an FCC license prior to use. To learn more, please visit the FCC web site.

What's in the Box
Two SX700R two-way radios, 2-pocket desktop charger, two NiMH battery packs, two replaceable faceplates, two holsters, user's manual.

5 out of 5 stars Walkie talkie.......2007-12-30

These are great, have used them for a year now and no problems....in fact I bought another pair for a friend for Christmas this year. We use them while going to and from car shows and cruise inns to communicate, we are seldom more than a mile apart and have saved a lot of trouble by being able to talk to each other

5 out of 5 stars Paintball: Works well in the woods.......2007-12-05

I bought the Talkabout SX700R to use for scenario paintball and the SPPL, and I have been pleased with it. I carry it on my (on-gun) tank so I can use it while aiming. It is easy to push the buttons with gloves on, I can hear what everyone is saying (as long as I don't put it in my pants pocket) and I can quickly and easily turn the volume up and down. Plus, I can set it to vibrate when I get a call, so I can turn off the alert. The field I usually play is about 400 acres, laid out long and narrow. I can easily get a hold of teammates that are 1/4 mile away from me through the trees. I haven't had to try it much further than that. I never have break-up when people talk, though if they aren't holding thier radios correctly they can be hard to understand. The radio is sealed well. It has been shot, dropped on the ground, dropped in mud, etc. and always works. The clips are kind of junk, though. I broke one already.

All in all, I can recommend this radio for paintball.

3 out of 5 stars Range not as advertised.......2007-08-27

This 2-way radio boasts a (up to) 12mile range, you will be lucky if you can get 1 mile under optimal conditions. Ignore range claims and go for the cheaper radio, the transmit power on all these radio's are identical.

5 out of 5 stars talkabout SX700R.......2007-08-10

This product works as advertised. The sound is crystal clear. I have not had the opportunity to use them in a more rural setting which is when you will achieve the maximum talk distance. In the city, depending on building location, you can get 1-2 miles of range. They will come in handy during the hunting season.

4 out of 5 stars Info about range claims.......2007-08-05

When looking at FRS/GMRS Radios radios ignore the marketing ploys that tell you the range of the radios (12 miles, 18 miles, 22 miles). All of the radios sold to the general public (except high end models- over $100 per individual radio) have the same power output rating- 1/2 a watt for FRS and 2 watts for GMRS. All other things being equal- every radio will have the excact same range. Why do you think that the more expensive the radio the farther a range the manufacturer says it has? Because they want you to THINK a more expensive radio has a farther range so you will buy the more expensive one. But they all have the same power output- meaning they will essentially have the same range. This is all a marketing PLOY to get you to buy a more expensive radio. A more expensive radio may have more features, but if the power output is the same the range will essentially be the same. You can look for the power output on the manufacturer's website, but I have researced this already- almost all models sold to the general public have 1/2 a watt for FRS and 2 watts for GMRS. With the power rating being the same the things that will affect range are antenna size, height of the transmitter, and terrain- usually things you will have little control over. So buy a radio that has the features and size you want and ignore the marketing ploys about the range.
