The talkies that are used by most forummers are categories as Recreational Walkie Talkie under the FRS/GMRS category. And its true, never believe the distance rating for most FRS/GMRS talkies, generally cut about 50 - 60% off the published rated distance. For example a 5 mile talkie, expect maybe 2 - 3 miles at most in day to day environments.  As for my Midland talkies they are under the FRS/GMRS type so guarantee to be compatible with the Motorola, Cobra, Uniden, etc. Infact I have a set of Motorola and I can show you that they work with the Midlands if you need proof. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Well happy hunting for the talkies....</blockquote>
