You can get a pair of communicators that are good from ship to surface.
We use them all the time on landing parties. They work very well.
Good Luck,

My "communicators" are unsurpassed and time-proven over the years. They
give flawless performance. I point to my group of followers as
testament. My crew of followers is not capable of having their minds
enlightened, Captain Kirk,... something you picked up on.

Do they go to Uranus and wipe out cling on's? G

Hi...

I am looking for a way to communicate with my wife while I am out doing
errands.

Looking for something hand held with a range of 15-20miles that would either
have no license or a small licensing requirement from the FCC.

Looking for something without a monthly fee also

Any suggestions?

Thank you!


What you're looking for isn't available.

WHY do you want it hand held? Are you going to MAINLY use it walking
around with it, or in a vehicle? IF you are wanting to use it walking
around with it, 2 meter ham is it. If you want it in vehicles or
house, then CB will be cheaper.

Well... I've got a 90 watt amp here that I can use on my handheld,
but that tends to cut down on the mobility factor just at LEETLE bit

Ooop. Sorry.. 90 watt amp is for 2-meter... No amp here for
27MHz... Regardless... 15-20 mile range HT to HT is NOT going to
happen under "real world" conditions. Closest one could get is the
PTT feature offered on the newer generations of cell phones. And even
THEN, you're looking a difficulties regarding coverage areas,
operations inside of structures with large amounts of metal, etc...
