I bought this radio and installed it overhead in my Rubi. I tested it to 11mi here in Montana on hilly terrain from outside the city to another vehicle in my driveway. It was crystal clear and I am sure that it would transmit much farther but I was about to start up a mountain and that added elevation would not be a fair test. I have tried it with the T71VP3 and achieved 5+mi in town between MXT400 to handheld. It needs the ability to have dual tones for repeaters, be ruggedized, and should most of all be ip68 waterproof. rated. That keeps it from a 5star rating overall. As a simple ,strong, and effective backup communication device it gets 5stars.

Recently purchased the radio along with other team members of our storm spotter team in southwest Ohio. After many weeks of research I chose this radio for it high watt output to give plenty of power to punch through the bad weather. As a team push towards the weather to help the NWS in Wilmington Ohio to get the word out to the general public when bad weather is in our area. Nice and compact radio for our vehicles, very easy to install and use. Highly recommend this radio

Powerful, compact and so easy to use. Paired with a well placed 6db gain antenna and this little powerhouse exceeds all expectations.
I am easily hitting gmrs repeaters 15 to 20 miles away and simplex operation is very impressive as well.
One minor con is the length of the power cord. With all the technology incorporated in new cars and trucks these days, I choose to always connect direct to the battery to avoid any potential problems with the electronic system. Going through the firewall isn't really an option- and is quite frankly, just an unnecessary pain...
Nevertheless, easily remedied with some connectors and additional high gage wire to make the trip from the cab to the battery in my 2029 Ram 1500.
Well done Midland ! 5 stars no question.

This radio is clearer and reaches out much father than the CBs.

We purchased 4 kits for our buggies when we go camping. The system works flawlessly in the woods and keeping tight communication. Easy to install, simple to use.
