They just keep getting better and better. A few suggestions about their use.

The first is that extra batteries are good, but it is also a great idea, for several reasons, to have a DC to AC converter, so you can charge your walkie talkies from your car’s cigarette lighter socket.

The second is that when you use walkie talkies, if there is interference, using alpha-numeric code is a big help. But take it a step further. Use a simple, one use code, which will defeat most of the snoops out there.

Thank you, Yefragetuwrabrumuy! Those are excellent ideas. I'm going to look to see if Costco still carries them and re-check their range. Otherwise I think the local Fry's carries them, too.
