    In town, I got less than a mile range while moving, standing still, close to a mile... Features wise, the radios are great, although they feel flimsy, they seem to hold up.. Would not recommend for car to car use

    So far as we can tell. They are good for 1-2 miles with heavy traffic. Other than that, ok for a small community. Like neighbors watch group.

    I don't know where the company gets that this product has a 23 mile range. We were lucky to get reception from a little more than 1/2 mile. We used these on a cross country move to communicate between the moving trucks and the cars just in case we didn't get cell service. We were lucky to get reception on anything over 1/2 mile. If the vehicle was out of sight, you got no reception. I would not recommend this product.

      I am sorry to hear the radio had poor range. Range will vary depending on power settings, obstructions, terrain, interference from other users, atmospheric noise and battery level. Please ensure you are using the high power channels (1-7 & 15-22) and in the high power mode to achieve maximum range. The radio can reach a maximum of 25 miles under ideal conditions. If you are still having issues please contact Cobra customer support at 1-800-543-1608 for additional help. cedarelectronics-cobra

    The range seemed very limited. They were unusable when about a half mile apart.

    Ummm, I thought the price was high for a walkie-talkie. Again I will comment that the Albuquerque store associates not very helpful overall but you will find one out of many willing to help. Not whining but if they want more business they should work hard for their money in meeting customer expectations.
