This radio is great. I especially like the feature that shows the ctcss code on the screen. This is a way to make sure it is properly programmed. I have a small car.and the size makes it a lot easier to mount.

I put this in my Dodge Journey. It is so light weight and was easy to mount on the side of the center console. I really do not get much traffic talking on it. If your looking for people to talk to your not going to get it on here unfortunately. It receives business traffic talking but they do not respond. I love the weather channel on it if I want up to date when out running around. So if your looking for a radio for off roaming and you have a crew that is with you. Then this is the way to go. As far as distance I know a couple of the traffic is a good 5 to 20 miles away. The reception is kind of static. So you may want to upgrade the antenna. If a different mount option, like door jam, window, becomes available then I am going to try it.

Bought these a few weeks ago and installed them into our tractors, combines, sprayers, and semis, they work great up to about 2 miles and then get a lot of static, bought the extended antennas and they helped but they still don’t reach the 5-7 mile range that they said they would

Great compact radio that installs anywhere! Stock antenna has ok range and is oddly small and unscrews a little to easy. Clear communication overall. The sticky pad that sticks to the mic holder (not the side that sticks to the car) has failed, will need to glue or find a double sided pad.

The MXT275 is a great radio, especially if you have limited space in your vehicle. I was able to program local GMRS repeaters into the radio without a problem. After programming repeaters, checked radio performance and received reports the radio was functioning well.
Please remember to get your GMRS license. There is no test for the license and it covers family members.

Bought this model over the other Midland GMRS radios, due to the controls all being in the microphone. This will make it much easier to use while on the road, and not have to take my eyes away, by looking down, where I have it mounted. Needed a GMRS unit for group and hwy travel, with some distance TX ability due to terrain over just CB use. I paired this with the optional 6dB antenna, for added distance, and will keep the included short one for a spare. Mostly desert/flat terrain, with some trees being encountered in the mountains/hills.

Just returned from hunting in the snow with temperatures as low to 13 deg. The radio had good range and the battery charge lasted longer that expected.

I bought this to use with my GXT1000 handhelds. The radio is easy to install and easy to use. The mic is well built and the speaker works great. I also like the way you can switch between speakers on the mic and the head unit or use them both if you need to. The included antenna works fine if you mount it as high as you can on your vehicle but I will definitely be upgrading to a permanent roof mount antenna on my truck.
