This Radio is fantastic! It is extremely small but performs almost as well as my ham radio. My Jeep club is doing a side by side comparison of ham, CB and GMRS radios to make a decision on what to use on trips. This radio is is the way to go for any off road groups looking for a communication system, it will blow CB away.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome radio. I have used it in obstructed environments in hill country and have gotten ranges of over 10 mi with big hills, trees and rocks in the way. If I’m using the repeater channels, I can get even bigger distances (make sure you get permission to use the towers!). We now have three different trucks in our weekend 4×4 group that use these radios now and we won’t be going back to CBs ever again. Absolute gamechanger. Works awesome with our GXT handhelds too.

Great little radio

I've been enjoing this radio, which came as part of a multi-pack with two handhelds. I want to take advantage of the 15W for my city's weekly radio check-in, so I built a carry box to easily use it in the house easily. With the antenna stuck to my skylight frame, I can talk with folks 20 miles away.

Perfect Solution for Limited Space

The MXT115 MicroMobile was the perfect solution for my new SUV. Its tiny size and very simple installation was perfect for the center console, nothing larger will fit! The built-in speaker delivers good sound. The MXT115 is not a top tier radio--I didn't expect it to be, but it adequately suits my needs for a mobile GMRS radio in my new vehicle. The receiver audio is choppy on my unit when using CTCSS, but it is tolerable. Thanks to Midland for making me "mobile" again! (Note: I use an aftermarket 1/4 wave magnet mount antenna for enhanced performance.)

I love the size. It has decent reception and is mostly easy to use. It is cheap and small and unlike most GMRS mobile radios it does not need to be programed with a computer to work.
My major complaint is that for repeaters, it must do the same TX/RX codes. As a result this radio can only use 1/3rd of repeaters in my area since most have a code to activate the repeater but no code to listen to the repeater.
This radio would get 5 stars if it had two software updates:
1. It needs separate TX/RX repeater codes.
2. It should show the actual codes displayed on the radio screen instead of a number that represents the code.

I Upgraded from your mxt-100 to the mxt115 what a big improvement. I did a test today from 2 miles from home,on a scale of 1 to 10 a very loud and clear 10, also the weather channels are very clear. I live in the Ozark Mountains so there are a lot of trees & high hills here.

I really like mine

I have had this radio(mxt115) for about a year now, I just bought a second. I do not use it a lot but do like to have it available just in case. I like the features and have grown use to this being available when I want or need it. I started with a Walmart mxt 90 and now have 2 mxt 115's and a mxt400 as well. I get great range and plan on playing around with it more in the near future. I have purchased a DPD productions base antenna as well as a Br-450 w/ a tram 1465 I plan to try as a home setup very soon. I did upgrade the mobile Antenna but for GMRS, the external antenna helps so much. I wanted to try the MICROMOBILE® MXTA11 6DB GAIN ANTENNA but have been unable to locate one so far. Thank you Midland for a great product

I’ve had the radios for about a week now. They are installed in Jeep Wranglers with the 3db ghost antenna. We live in very hilly central PA, and can communicate approximately 7 miles radio to radio. I have connected with repeaters about 27 miles away! I have ordered a 3db whip antenna from another vendor in hopes of getting better radio to radio communications in the hills and city. Over all we are happy with these. They blow CB radios out of the water, and are perfect for trail communications.
