No audio

I have this for a month now. At first everything works but all of a sudden the audio tx is gone. All that comes out on tx is only the beeper but voice audio is lost.

MXT275 is a great radio

I bought this radio months ago. It was a quick install in my RAV4, which doesn’t have much room for a bigger radio. The base of the unit is zip-tied under the driver seat and the mic clip is in an otherwise useless section of the shifter console. I ordered the Ghost 3db and MXTA26 6db gain antennas with the mag mount base. The Ghost is my daily and when I want more range I switch to the MXTA26. Great range with both.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Mobile Radio

Best feature: All settings on headset, now I can hide the radio box. There is not FRS channels (8-14), understandable new FCC regulations. Wish to have channels and radio frequencies (RF) on display, have to look manual/documentation when setting specific RF on repeater channels. Tested it handheld to mobile in ABQ flat terrain, works great, overall the radio is loud and has clear reception.

This radio combines the familiarity and ease of operation of a handheld radio with the higher power output and better antenna performance of a dedicated vehicle installed mobile radio. The microphone is of a solid and strong polymer construction which is the right size for the average hand. The controls are intuitive. The menu is on par with handhelds. Basic installation is easy for the novice user and in theory this radio could be quickly transferred between vehicles. The transceiver housing is made out of die-cast aluminum with a rugged paint coating and the housing mounting bracket is very sturdy while allowing for quick removal of the transceiver. The USB port is active whether or not the radio is turned on so beware that if you wire this up directly from the main battery (rather than a key switched source like most 12V outlets in modern vehicles), there will be a small drain. Personally, I have this wired to my aux battery and use the USB port to charge my phone while the vehicle is off. The microphone hanger clip uses foam tape to attach it to a flat surface. Finding a flat surface can be challenging for many many vehicles but it doesn't get easier than sticking the clip to your dashboard. Personally, I installed a generic screw mounted mic clip for added durability and since I had no flat surfaces where I wanted it to be mounted. Overall this is a great product concept that was executed very well and is a welcomed supplement to my HAM and CB radios already installed.

I bought the MXT400 initially, which was a fantastic radio as well, but the one thing that was difficult for me was finding real estate to properly mount it. I ended up installing it under my driver seat which made reaching the mic and adjusting volume/channels, etc. difficult. The MXT275 works just as well for me as the MXT400 did for my use cases (offroad communications) but allowed me to mount it in a perfectly accessible location along the passenger side footwell. It's so compact and light! I love that the controls are integrated into the mic, which allows me to control it easily from the drivers seat. The 12v adapter makes for ridiculously easy setup as well and means the whole unit can be moved to another vehicle rather quickly. Overall, I have been extremely pleased with it.

I’ve wanted the MXT275 for a while and for my birthday the wife surprised me with it! I installed it into my Jeep for a hard wired, high powered radio while out camping and off roading. I also have some Midland handhelds that are great but I like knowing I’ve got more power and options on the big radio. I love it so much I bought a second one for my tiny camper trailer. Now, while I’m roaming around in the Jeep away from the camp site, we can still get ahold of each other. I was a comms guy in the Army. I guess some things never change.

I had a CB and Ham installed in my Jeep for trail runs, but found I hardly used them because everyone else I wheeled with just used GMRS, so this was a no brainer rather than using a handheld.
Installation was very straight forward. I used hose clamps to afix the base mount under the drivers seat. I had to fabricate a small mount for the magnetic antenna. The hand mic/speaker feeds up alongside the center console, making it easy to use while on the trail.
The included manual answered all the questions I had when it came to settings.
Overall, I'm very happy with this radio, so I bought a couple for my sons too.

Essential equipment when outdoors!

We’ve been using these radios for past 5 months and can honestly say they are an essential piece of equipment. We’ve used them when leading trail rides, rescuing stuck vehicle and people and for simple communications while driving down the road. Used in conjunction with the handheld radios we don’t head out the door with our radios. Awesome product, thanks Midland!
