I normally wheel with a couple of FRS radio's inside the
vehicle for communications with my spotter when I am in a difficult area, or
just for communicating between friends when we are in a couple different
areas. Now going down the highway, the handheld's, just didn't
have enough volume to be heard over all the soft top and road noise.
That is until these were found at the local Radio Shack. Very simple to
operate with all the features of a handheld unit in one powerful
package. This is a Mobile/ Marine 14 Channel radio. The radio
is sealed inside the antenna's magnetic mount for maximum range. All
controls are located on the microphone. It utilizes the 14 Family Radio
Service channels with 38 selectable quiet codes. Range of up to 3 miles.

Needed:
None
Installation:
1. Since this is a mobile unit. All you need to do if find a magnetic,
or a hard mount are within reach of the cigarette lighter plug for
the antenna. I just run mine out the passenger door and mount
it to the hood. Check to make certain that there is no debris
on the base of the antenna before you do. You wouldn't want
to scratch your paint job.
