    Motorola MR355R 35-Mile Range 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair)

    Motorola MR355R 35-Mile Range 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) Review



    Motorola MR355R 35-Mile Range 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) Feature

    • 10 different call tones including five animal sounds
    • 11 weather channels (7 NOAA) with alert features
    • 22 channels each with 121 privacy codes for superior interference protection
    • Pair of two-way radios with up to 35 mile range and camouflage finish
    • iVOX hands-free communication without the need for an audio accessory
    Sporting the REALTREE AP HD CAMO pattern and featuring a range of up to 35 miles, the Motorola Talkabout MR355R is an ideal communication tool for the serious outdoor enthusiast. Lightweight and rugged, with extra large buttons to help you operate even with gloves on, the MR355R is built to handle any challenge without weighing you down. The MR355R includes an emergency alert feature, to inform others should any dangers come your way. The MR355R also features a built-in LED flashlight for peace of mind during evening adventures or unexpected emergencies and power outages. Weather alerts will provide your group with warnings of incoming storms or dangerous conditions. And, by tuning in to one of 7 NOAA channels, you'll always know what to pack. This radio also features the VibraCall silent vibrating ringer, which is useful for locations where ringing can be intrusive or background noise would drown out your ring tone.

    A great communication tool for the serious outdoor enthusiast.

    MR355R Features

    35 Mile Range
    The MR355R, under ideal conditions, gives you a range of up to 35 miles. Conditions vary with geography and other variables.

    22 Channels With 8 Repeater Channels
    Starting with the same 22 channels as the MR350, the MR355R adds 8 built-in repeater channels, which can work with a local repeater station to carry your signal further. Take advantage of this value-added feature by switching to GMRS channels 15R-22R, but don't forget you'll need a GMRS license and an accessible repeater station to take advantage.

    Emergency Alert Button
    When the alert button is activated, the radio transmits an alert siren followed by transmission of spoken or incidental sounds. This allows you to send the signal to other radios and warn of impending danger.

    Keypad Lock
    Lock your keypad to avoid accidentally changing your radio settings.

    Channel Scan
    Use scan to search the 22 channels for transmissions from unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has accidentally changed channels, or to quickly find unused channels for your own use.

    Includes drop-in dual charger for easy charging.

    Brilliant LCD with battery indicator, channel, and other info.

    Oversized buttons are easy to use, even with gloves on.

    Charging Options
    You can charge the MR355R using the Motorola standard charging port (with the included charging adapter), the Drop-in cradle charger (also included), or purchase a mini-USB cable for use with the Mini-USB charging port, especially useful when traveling.

    121 Privacy Codes
    Interference Eliminator Codes help minimize interference by blocking transmissions from unknown sources. The MR355R features 121 codes for superior interference protection.

    Ten Call Tones (Five Standard, Five Animal Sounds)
    The MR355R can transmit different call tones to other radios in your group so you can alert them that you want to talk. You can also add stealth and fun to your outdoor adventure by masking your radio's normal ring tone under the guise of a quacking duck, a cackling goose, a gobbling turkey, a bugling elk or a howling coyote. You will find this a helpful way to blend into the untamed habitat of the wild.

    Hands-Free Communication
    Use the iVOX feature to transmit hands-free without the need for any headset accessories. Once iVOX is turned on, the radio detects your voice and transmits when you speak into the internal microphone.

    QT (Quiet Talk) Noise Filtering
    The QT noise-filtering feature helps to ensure uninterrupted communication with other Motorola radios, filtering out unwanted transmissions from other radios. This is useful in places where there is heavy radio traffic, such as amusement parks or ski resorts.

    Talk Confirmation (Roger Beep) Alert
    You can set your radio to transmit a unique tone when you finish transmitting. It is like saying "Roger" or "Over" to let others know you are finished talking.

    TriSquare eXRS TSX300-2VP 900MHz FHSS Digital Two-Way Radio (Charcoal Metallic/Black) (Pair) Review



    TriSquare eXRS TSX300-2VP 900MHz FHSS Digital Two-Way Radio (Charcoal Metallic/Black) (Pair) Feature

    • New Advanced Digital Technology gives you Private and Secure Communications, no eavesdeopping and cannot be scanned
    • 10 Billion Channels
    • SMS Text Messaging between Radios
    • Interference Free
    • License Free
    TriSquare has revolutionized 2-way radio communication with eXtreme Radio ServiceTM (eXRSTM). eXtreme Radio Service (eXRS) two-way radios use proprietary Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) in the ISM band (900 MHz frequencies). This FHSS system combines the power of digital technology with narrow band FM modulation technique. Merging the two technologies facilitates a radio communications system that maintains a narrow band base signal to ensure for maximum usable range within a given dB power budget, comparable to traditional fixed frequency narrow band FM radios, but with the added benefit of wide band digital security and privacy provided by the frequency hopping spread spectrum algorithm. Maintaining the information signal as narrow band FM modulation centered on discrete frequencies allows for a large pool of non-overlapping hopping frequencies to draw upon within a given section of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum.

    MR355R Features

    35 Mile Range
    The MR355R, under ideal conditions, gives you a range of up to 35 miles. Conditions vary with geography and other variables.

    22 Channels With 8 Repeater Channels
    Starting with the same 22 channels as the MR350, the MR355R adds 8 built-in repeater channels, which can work with a local repeater station to carry your signal further. Take advantage of this value-added feature by switching to GMRS channels 15R-22R, but don't forget you'll need a GMRS license and an accessible repeater station to take advantage.

    Emergency Alert Button
    When the alert button is activated, the radio transmits an alert siren followed by transmission of spoken or incidental sounds. This allows you to send the signal to other radios and warn of impending danger.

    Keypad Lock
    Lock your keypad to avoid accidentally changing your radio settings.

    Channel Scan
    Use scan to search the 22 channels for transmissions from unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has accidentally changed channels, or to quickly find unused channels for your own use.

    Includes drop-in dual charger for easy charging.

    Brilliant LCD with battery indicator, channel, and other info.

    Oversized buttons are easy to use, even with gloves on.

    Charging Options
    You can charge the MR355R using the Motorola standard charging port (with the included charging adapter), the Drop-in cradle charger (also included), or purchase a mini-USB cable for use with the Mini-USB charging port, especially useful when traveling.

    121 Privacy Codes
    Interference Eliminator Codes help minimize interference by blocking transmissions from unknown sources. The MR355R features 121 codes for superior interference protection.

    Ten Call Tones (Five Standard, Five Animal Sounds)
    The MR355R can transmit different call tones to other radios in your group so you can alert them that you want to talk. You can also add stealth and fun to your outdoor adventure by masking your radio's normal ring tone under the guise of a quacking duck, a cackling goose, a gobbling turkey, a bugling elk or a howling coyote. You will find this a helpful way to blend into the untamed habitat of the wild.

    Hands-Free Communication
    Use the iVOX feature to transmit hands-free without the need for any headset accessories. Once iVOX is turned on, the radio detects your voice and transmits when you speak into the internal microphone.

    QT (Quiet Talk) Noise Filtering
    The QT noise-filtering feature helps to ensure uninterrupted communication with other Motorola radios, filtering out unwanted transmissions from other radios. This is useful in places where there is heavy radio traffic, such as amusement parks or ski resorts.

    Talk Confirmation (Roger Beep) Alert
    You can set your radio to transmit a unique tone when you finish transmitting. It is like saying "Roger" or "Over" to let others know you are finished talking.

    Weather Receiver
    Tune in to broadcasts by the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio and Environment Canada Weatheradio. Both NOAA and Environment Canada have transmitters located throughout the United States and Canada, respectively. These transmitters broadcast watches, forecasts, and other information 24 hours a day.

    Weather Alerts
    A special alarm tone sounds an alert and turns on the weather receiver to give you immediate weather and emergency information.

    Flashlight
    Handy built-in LED flashlight comes in handy in the dark or during power outages.

    Push-to-Talk (PTT) Power Boost
    When activated, this feature helps extend the transmission range by increasing the transmitter power output while helping to save battery life when no power boost is necessary.

    Extra Large Buttons
    Skiers and winter sports adventurists will appreciate the new design that features extra large buttons making it easier than ever to operate with gloves.

    VibraCall
    For quiet adventures or when ringing is intrusive, the VibraCall feature can be enabled to silently alert users to incoming transmissions.

    What's in the Box
    Two MR355R Radios with Removable Belt Clips, Dual Drop-in Charger, Charging Adapter, Two 2 NiMH rechargeable battery packs, Owner's Manual Sporting the REALTREE AP HD CAMO pattern and featuring a range of up to 35 miles, the Motorola Talkabout MR355R is an ideal communication tool for the serious outdoor enthusiast.

    TriSquare eXRS TSX300-2VP 900MHz FHSS Digital Two-Way Radio (Charcoal Metallic/Black) (Pair) Review



    TriSquare eXRS TSX300-2VP 900MHz FHSS Digital Two-Way Radio (Charcoal Metallic/Black) (Pair) Feature

    • New Advanced Digital Technology gives you Private and Secure Communications, no eavesdeopping and cannot be scanned
    • 10 Billion Channels
    • SMS Text Messaging between Radios
    • Interference Free
    • License Free
    TriSquare has revolutionized 2-way radio communication with eXtreme Radio ServiceTM (eXRSTM). eXtreme Radio Service (eXRS) two-way radios use proprietary Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) in the ISM band (900 MHz frequencies). This FHSS system combines the power of digital technology with narrow band FM modulation technique. Merging the two technologies facilitates a radio communications system that maintains a narrow band base signal to ensure for maximum usable range within a given dB power budget, comparable to traditional fixed frequency narrow band FM radios, but with the added benefit of wide band digital security and privacy provided by the frequency hopping spread spectrum algorithm. Maintaining the information signal as narrow band FM modulation centered on discrete frequencies allows for a large pool of non-overlapping hopping frequencies to draw upon within a given section of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum.
