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 bought this as well as the x-talker handhelds about a month ago for driving with family out in the desert. The radio sounds very clear and the range is great. Definetly worth the purchase. Just waiting for the rest of my friends to buy into the system too

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.

Compact, easy to setup. Has good range with the antenna kit. (Not the one that came with it). Speaker is loud and clear. Pretty easy when you know all the buttons. Biggest downside for me is that the buttons that go along the bottom of the unit do not illuminate. So if you're in the dark and don't remember what button does what, it can be difficult. But overall for the price the unit has done well.

I bought this for use in my jeep on the trails, a buddy has one from China in his Jeep, this thing walks all over him, he could hear me loud and clear 7 miles away with lots of terrain in the way but couldn't come close to reaching me, and it works with my handhelds perfectly, I can hear them out to about 4 miles, I think I'll get a 40 watt next and put this in the side by side.
