I own a cattle ranch and was wanting something stationary for my truck that can work with the walkie talkie's my employees have. The MXT115 works perfectly. I haven't had any issues with transmitting or receiving with the walkies. The MicroMobile allows me to communicate with my guys from a pretty good distance away. There is no reason for me to own a CB anymore.

I bought this radio for use on the trail and initial impressions are very good. One of my favorite features is the small size; it allows you to mount the radio just about anywhere. I also like the ease of setting up repeaters. We have several GMRS repeaters here in Tucson and I've been able to hit them all. I haven't tested the limits but I've regularly been hitting a repeater 15 miles away. I have it paired with Midlands 6db antenna and mag NMO mount which seems to work well. The SWR on it showed 1.04 without any extra tuning or fiddling. The menu interface is hard to follow since all menu options are abbreviated to 2 letters. I find that I don't go into the menu enough to have them memorized so I keep the manual handy. Another con is the mount for the microphone does not come with screws, only adhesive. I found my microphone on the floor of my truck after one day in the Arizona sun. I quickly remedied the problem with a self tapping screw. I also would have preferred a channel knob on the unit itself instead of buttons on the microphone. Aside from those few minor items the radio is great!

I've had my MTX115 just under a month. I have not yet had time to do any long range tests. Working from my vehichle in the garage, I was able to reach my freind, from a distance of about 5 miles. Not bad, for being inside, plus in the city. Looking forward to getting some use in the woods soon.

Semi happy with the radio. Range is no where as advertised. I’m aware of the small print it states with optimal conditions. Realistically I get about 3 miles range in suburban conditions. Would like to see more true advertising.

Great product and makes communication between pieces of equipment on the farm a breeze. No more unreliable repeaters and towers. However, I have given this 3 stars because of the quality of the mic hanger. The glue does not stick very well and they constantly fall off due to the heat I would assume.

I have two of these installed. One in my car, and one set up as a base station at my house with an outdoor antenna. Great range, and I'm able to keep in touch with my daughter when she's out and about in the neighborhood using a little HT. I already have a third radio on the way for a second vehicle.
