So far my experiences have been great! The radio is installed and easily understood controls. I have programmed using the separately purchased cable and downloaded software, also from Midland. For my tastes the included manuals as small but this was easily overcome by downloading the manuals from the support section of the website. I'm still learning and reading but from a beginner perspective all seems well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice radio at a really good price. Good transmit range in the forest. The mic is very light and feels cheap but it works. Will probably replace. Midland should offer a couple of antenna bundles. I bought the magnetic mount and used an existing antenna to save a few bucks. If you want a solid 40 watt GMRS radio at a great price, this is a great choice.

I have bought this radio twice now, but the second time was more due to the fact that my vehicle was already set up for it and the price had come down considerably.
The first radio had issues with channel drift that could be rectified by changing the channel then returning. It finally was replaced when the transmitter quit working. The radio lasted approx 2.5 years. When/If this newly installed radio has the same problems I will not replace it with the same setup.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
