Thanks. One question? I've been scanning through those freq's and
never get nothing. Wal-Mart is only about 5 miles from me. From
reading these Cobra's can reach up to about 10 miles. Any idea why I'm
not hearing anything. Is there a way that Wal-Mart could possibly have
them blocked from being heard?

Those radios have a .75 mile range on the average. That 10 mile range crap
is just that, crap. I have NEVER heard any FRS radio go more than a couple
miles.
