I'm looking at the 4 Midland Radios. I was going to get two form myself, but 4 is better.

I hate to say it, but you get a much better deal at Walmart...
$30-ish for two with a charger. I have one pair of those and they are more reliable than CBs. I've been running one for our Trail Guide and one for our Tail Gunner and sometimes one in the middle in case our convoy gets broken up at lights or whatever. You can plug in an external speaker, a head set, a mic, etc.
ATJ sells soft mounts for them, too. Strap to your roll bar and go.

It had nothing to do with Walmart, you just wanted your shameless plug for ATJ. :poke:

I bet Target (Tar-jay) has a better deal. :lol:

I thought we had some. I thought Steve bought some for FC or something? I dunno why I think that.

You guys had radios last year but I don't know what happened to them.
Good question though.

Ugh...you mean I actually have to get out of my chair and run downstairs? :lol: There are at least four or five I believe. I don't recall why Jay and I didn't get ours last year but we didn't. There were enough for us to have one. I don't think we need more right now.

It's not hate, it is misanthropy.

Two for less than $27 with a charger, just like the ones pictured? I doubt it.

Oh, yeah, the shameless plug for ATJ. I forgot about that.

I don't get paid for plugging the EKM38-19081C-Black Trail Tronic 2 Way Radio Holder that easily attaches to any size roll bar which may also be used for your cell phone, GPS or Palm Pilot.

Oh, nutz, I AM on the clock...
