heard to say: Hi, I'd like to get a small, portable HT type radio for my wife (a non HAM) in case phones, etc., fail. What can you recommend? It should be small enough to carry daily, but get an honest 2-3 mile range (depending on terrain). We've tried several of the FSR type radios, but none get anywhere near the advertised range. Any suggestions? Please email to (remove SPAM) Thanks, Win Oddly enough, nobody suggested having her earn her Amateur Radio ticket and getting a 2-meter handheld! My wife did it with three days of studying. To this day she retains maybe 2% of the testing material, but at least she remembered it long enough to get her ticket - and that was when you had to take TWO written tests for Tech!
