With 28 miles of range, the Uniden GMR2889-2CK two-way radios offer you the freedom to go anywhere and do anything--from weekend hiking to just hanging out at the mall. These GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) radios are lightweight, palm sized, state-of-the-art communications devices, providing a maximum spread of 28 miles. They also feature NOAA weather alerts and caller name display. This package comes complete with two radios and two NiMH rechargeable batteries as well as a dual-bay charging cradle.
Depending on your location, you can stay in contact with family and friends up to 28 miles away.
Be safe, not sorry with these GMRS radios. Their long-range communication capabilities means you're never out of touch, and two-way radio communications can ensure your safety when cell phone signals fade and fall short. (Actual range may vary depending on environmental and terrain conditions; see chart at right.) Use them at sporting events, to stay in contact with friends while camping, hiking, skiing or biking, or in conjunction with a neighborhood watch to ensure vital communications.
The GMR2889-2CK radios offer a unique Caller Name Dispaly that appears on the LCD, enabling you to see who is calling before you key up. When hunting, fishing or just need absolute quiet, the Silent Mode setting will alert you with a flashing display and the radios will also vibrate to remind you that you missed a call. When in the weather radio alert mode, the GMR2889-2CK radios will monitor NOAA National Weather Service channels, checking the alert status every seven seconds ready to alert you in the event of a weather emergency.
The radios have a unique circuitry designed to dramatically extend the life of your batteries. If there is no transmission of incoming call for three seconds, your radio automatically switches to the Power Save mode. They also have a Power Boost key that, when pressed, can temporarily increase the power output and achieve maximum communication range.
