Default 2 way radio

My family means the world to me. I keep four 2-way radios with a rated 35 mile range. Two at home and one in each car so that we can contact each other in case the cell networks are down. We also have two CB radios, on in the house and one in the BOV.

I don't know if that brand has the "encryption" option or not, but be aware when you use it, anybody on that freq can tune in on your broadcast just fine, they just can't speak to you with it on. So everything you say can be understood.
