Waterproof Two-Way Radios With a 28-Mile Range
22 Channels and a 28-Mile Range
The GMR2838 boasts 22 channels, including 7 FRS and 15 GMRS channels, along with 121 privacy codes to help reduce interference from other users. A channel scan feature lets you easily scan all 22 channels for activity, pausing on each active channel for two seconds. You can also monitor a single channel for any signals.
These radios will give you a range of up to 28 miles, opening up your options considerably (as with any two-way radio, the less obstructions the more range you'll achieve).
J1S4 Waterproof Rating
The GMR2838 boasts a weatherproof shell that meets rigid J1S4 compliant standards, which makes them perfect for rainy weather and damp environments.
Rechargeable NiMH Batteries
These radios are powered by included NiMH battery packs. The included charging kit keeps your radio ready for action, and a battery strength meter lets you know when it's time to charge them back up. Add Uniden's DC-1002 adapter for easy charging in your vehicle.
Plenty of Convenience
The GMR2838 is an intuitive, easy-to-use radio, with features to keep things seamless. A backlit LCD display makes it easy to read, day or night. A keypad lock feature locks in key functions so they aren't accidentally changed. A headset jack allows you to listen to radio chatter from your VOX or PTT-type headset (not included) when you're trying not to scare away your prized prey, and the included belt clips keep your radios right at your side, for hands-free operation.
For transmitting/receiving, you can choose between five call tones to sound when calling each other, and the roger beep feature lets others know when you finish speaking.
