Motorola Talkabout FR60 (14 Channels) Two Way Radio
 

Product Description

 
The FR-60 communicates on all 14 FRS channels and also has 38 sub-codes (also known as privacy codes) per channel, so it usually isn't too tough to find an open channel in a crowded place. It also offers great sound clarity and a range that met or exceeded that of any other FRS radio we've tested. The dark blue device is solidly constructed, and although it isn't the smallest FRS radio on the market, it is very comfortable to hold. The large transmit button on the side is rubber-coated and easy to press when you need to talk, but difficult to press by accident. A small red LED lights up on the top when you are transmitting, so you can always tell if the device is working. A bullet-shaped knob on the top is used to turn the radio on and adjust the volume, and the small rubber antenna bends a bit and therefore is unlikely to snap off if you drop the radio. There's a menu key that's used in conjunction with up/down arrows to select channels and choose a call tone.

I'm more than 2 Miles Away! Can you hear me?

Date of Review:  Oct 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: I would defintely advise everyone considering to buy the FR60 to go out and get it!
Review: Before buying the FR-60 radio, my last "walkie talkie" broke when I was about ten years old. I left it out for the night. It was static-y. I didn't realize how far technology really has come, until I bought two of these little radios.

Finally a Walkie-talkie that works.

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: No real bells and whistles, but who needs a vibrating walkie-talkie? Motorola rises to the occasion.
Review: Here goes the requisite opening paragraph:

When I was a kid I had walkie-talkies that should have been returned to the manufacturer by the retailer. They had a range comparable to shouting or using cans with string tied to them. One day I...
