Bought this set several years ago and they are great. Used on cruises and hunting mainly. Years old and still work great and hold a charge.
Thanks for the info. Looking to but for a cruise.

We just got ours and I can confirm it is USB-C. So far it is great, giving us a good range of around a mile in NYC.

Bought these, used for a week, battery life sucks. Not practical at all. Maybe for some children to play around with. I will be returning mine.

Quote from poohbee :
I have these to use at our small facility and we get cross talk often from road construction or kids talking on it, etc. Is there anything we can buy that will prevent all this cross talk? I've heard of MURS which sounds like its less congested but still have a chance of people being on the same five channels that it uses. Any suggestions for two way radios that are compact, doesn't need a subscription, more private, for business use.
Set up a privacy tone on your radios. It isn't actually private but your radios will filter and play only the transmissions with that tone. So it will cut off all the crosstalk noise

Bought this for my family for a cruise. This thing is garbage. If they're in a room they can barely even reach the other user 20 feet's away. Perfect direct line of sight the voice was clear but if it's obstructed a bit it get staticky. Long range is an exaggeration. The ship was the Royal Caribbean Wonder of the Sea. Wasn't even that large.

"Long range" is fluff. Go check out NotARubicon on youtube. Line of site matters more than anything else. More than whether it's 2.5W or 5W.

Got mine today and was also pleasantly surprised they are usb-c. The price is great and they are light and simple to use. I tested the range however and it is pretty bad. I'd say about half of what I'm used to with "1-mile" range radios. Can't give an exact number and ymmv but they're definitely not as good as others I've tested like Ozark Trail ones from walmart for example.

Details of CTCSS/DCS codes are far from clear, but it looks like they are fixed. This means that if you want to talk to other radios with a different CTCSS/DCS you're out of luck. This doesn't matter for most people but for my use case it would.

I don't know about this, but I will say that I bought my kids some used multi-mile range Cobra FRS radios off eBay.. they're awesome. I think I paid $20 for 3x and I get a solid mile range in the burbs from inside the house.
Which cobra FRS models did you buy? Something like this? https://ebay.us/m/cdjbAl

Mine arrived today. Also USB-C. Have not tested range, but at least that recent box of power charging seems checked.

I wonder if these by default are set for low watts output, hence folks having poor range.

Also, MURS is VHF, not UHF so you cannot reprogram these for MURS.

For PL tones (CTCSS) you'll need to set the PL tone for TX and RX so you won't hear folks on the same freq.

Use CHIRP to reprogram these.
