In terms of Consumer Radios, the techs here at Blinkwave.com like the Motorola T6500 Radio for its small size and more durable design. When compared to the other consumer two-way radios on the market, the T6500 has comparable features, extended ranges, and tends to last longer due to its higher level of durability and rubber side grips. We also liked the ability to tune into the weather channel for current updates.

If you still can't decide which radio to purchase, try to answer these questions about how the radio will be used:

• Is it probable that the radio could be dropped on concrete? If yes, choose a more durable radio.
• Are there building and walls that you need to transmit through? If yes, you will need a UHF radio, and most likely a higher wattage radio.
• Do you need to have private conversations with a select group of people? If yes, then consider the multiple channel radios. Always remember though, that an unlimited number of people can talk on just one channel.
