Midland Outfitter Series GXT1050VP4 50-Channel 36-Mile Waterproof 2-Way GMRS Radio with NOAA All Hazard /Weather Alert, Rechargeable Batteries, Dual D


Over All Rating Reviews :
The Midland Outfitter Series GXT1050VP4 is no better then any other radios I have used. The GMRS side of the radio will not let you work repeaters for those that are licensed for this service. Range is a joke and the audio could be better the drop in charger only shows when the radios are charging but the light remains on after the battery is fully charged unlike the Talkabout Motorola radios I own. I feel this could shorten the battery life as they are always charging. I called Midland and they told me to charge the radios 8-10 hours max so I don't over charge and damage the batteries. You can not adjust the squelch on these radios as one radio does not hear as well as the other. Another call to Midland was of no help.On the plus side the ear microphones work well and the display is readable day and night.

I love the radios and the multiple headset applications. I really would like to know where in the hell they were able to pick up from 36 miles away??????? I went hunting and from about a mile away and some scatered tree's and small hills I could not talk to my wife back at the house very well. I think they must test these thing from mountain to mountain with overcast skys and direct line of sight. I would love to talk to the CEO of Midland and ask him WTF !!!! The range sucks, but other than that I love the radios and the accesories. I am in the military and know a lot about many different types of radios and am very familiar with freq. hops. I can use the basic Asips radio to play some music and bounce off towers and talk to people in other states. So I am damn near an expert with radios and I'm telling you these radios barely picked up a mile. Good luck with your choice. Good buy for the money but for the money you can buy a much better product as long as you have your GMRS licsence.

I purchased this product for hunting purposes. Having the 650 and 850 series, I bought the 1050's to keep up with longer tranmissions. While the 1050 series transmits at longer ranges it doesn't come close to the 36 miles range as advertised. The furthest transmission was 18 miles. I suppose the key word in the product description "is under ideal conditions!". I would love to know what an ideal conditon is. Standing on the Moon with no obsticals in the way? Having the planets all aligned?
Despite my grumblings about never being in ideal conditions, the 1050's are satifactory and a well built product.
Maybe Midland could come out with a two way that transmits out to a hundred miles, therefore achieving a 36 mile transmission claim!

Bargain sale Midland Outfitter Series GXT1050VP4 50-Channel 36-Mile Waterproof 2-Way GMRS Radio with NOAA All Hazard /Weather Alert, Rechargeable Batt


Over All Rating Reviews :
These radio's work very well after you get over the fact that no portable radio will work long range in an urban setting. The advertised 37 mile range is not realistic in most settings. No portable radio will work over about a mile unless there is an unobstructed line of sight to the other party such as over water (or maybe mountain top to mountain top). These are 5 Watt radios. The FCC limits the power output on GMRS Radios to 5 Watts maximum. Some brands are not even 5 watts, however these are.

I use these radio's at our hunting camp in Central Georgia. In the thick forest, the maximum range is about a mile. As indicated above,I have used all major brands with Midland the best and Motorola coming in second.

What I like:

Maximum Range
Camo finish
Push to Talk (PTT) works very well, the switch is solidly built
The included headsets work well but are somewhat uncomfortable to wear
More features that you will ever need
The Value Pack with included accessories is a great value and better value than any other radio on the market.
Waterproof, ok to use in the rain
The Amazon price is a real bargain for the radios and all the accessories that are included.
3 Year Warranty (as far as I now the others are only guaranteed a year)
The rechargeable batteries last a long time.

What I don't like:

The unit is somewhat bulky and slightly larger that most radios on the market. However they still fit in your shirt pocket or on your belt with the included belt clip.

Summary:
If you want GMRS radios and accessories that work well at a bargain price, this is the one to buy.
