Something that I find quite refreshing is the type of organic balance in the comments. The “some people” comment on your video and the comments of the Happy Followers of The Queen. …my stubble that grows while expecting intelligence is quite sexy, if I may say so myself. The Queen’s people get as much of a laugh from “some people” taunting them as they do from your Majesty’s vignettes. They enjoy feigning “the smartest one in the room” act, and we are strong enough to handle the pebble throwing. It is a beautiful dynamic. ❤👍🏽

I think that all radios should have a type c charging port instead of those huge charging cradle... Most of the new radios are including type c. Makes me wonder why Midland choses not to add a type c charger. I am to the point that I always look for radios that have type c charging.

I was hoping you could provide a recommendation for me. I am lost in the number of videos and websites with many many different options for walkie talkies. We use walkie talkies mainly with our kids when they head out in the neighborhood or to a friends house as we aren’t into kids having cell phones lol. I basically need a set that I can actually hear my kids without a lot of static when they are less than a mile away but there are houses in the way. Also budget version. Not the 300$ version. And please no license needed. My brain is exhausted trying to find the right option. PLEASE HELP!

[@TheNotaRubicon]

a $300 GMRS radio has the EXACT SAME FARS as a $25 GMRS radio, so get a $25-$30 one and see what happens.. Whether or not there is static depends on what is between you and the other radio, and the only way to know if it will be static'ee or not, is to try it.

[@Adamdaj]

I'm sure that both radios will perform just fine depending on the type of activity the users plan to use them for. However, I do think the Midland GXT 67PRO would be more favorable from its housing and with the name Midland, you know you're dealing with well-known Radio Manufacture that has a good reputation in the 11m/CB / Part 95D territory. The Rocky Talkie looks like a shoulder speaker/mic with antenna, instead of the actual radio.

[@DinsDale-tx4br]

8:25 oh My Gawd!!!! Hahahahaha :-) Lucky you didn't hit a log down there. 9:48 When you say the battery 'sucks' the rocky talkie looks awfully sad :-( 14:10 No square edges means it's better for stealth covert operations, shame about its bleep though, almost as bad as Roger who screwed a few opps when folk were trying to be quiet and some dork whispered 10 -4 only for the bloody thing to give out a sodding great ding! Pst: Does Your FCC membership badge have a Holokote on it? Good conclusion. Mine would depend on whether I could override Midland's automatic power level reduction .... I would prefer not to be duped over my Fars' when operational (stuck up a tree miles from nowhere thinking my signal is getting through and waiting to make the run through the critters to my truck for charging until i really have to.
