Audiovox GMRS7001 7-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Radio (Pair) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently purchased a set of Audiovox GMRS7001-2. We operated them side by side with the larger Cobra PR-4000 series radios.
As far as range and transmit power, they appear to be almost equal with the larger Cobras. However, the receiver appears to not be quite as sensitive as the Cobra, and the receive audio is a bit tinny with somewhat poor audio reproduction. The squelch and quieting are not nearly as good as the Cobra. On the GMRS side of the radio, the volume control is appropriate and balanced.
The weather radio works, as well as does the alert. The volume on the weather part is somewhat loud, and I fear overdriving and blowing the speaker. (I would guess the speaker has been engineered to take whatever the final audio amplifier puts out...)
On the whole, the Audiovox GMRS7001-2 gets the same range, but does not perform as well as the Cobra PR-4000 and PR-4250 radios. That being said, they are physically smaller, and only cost about half as much.
Which makes them, on the whole, an excellent value for the money.

Do you need an enormous seven mile range out of your 2-way radio?Would youappreciate the feature of having three Canadian maritime channels and seven NOAA weatherband channels? If so, then these radios might be just for you. Don't worry, Audiovox left thefeatures that you expect out of any other 2-way, like hands free capability, twenty-two channels(each with thirty-eight privacy sub-channels), a detachable swivel carry clip, a backlit LCDscreen, scan button, and full electronic channel and volume controls. The radios run on five AAAbatteries, and even powering a seven mile range, will run for fourteen to thirty hours. Rememberthat with this range, you'll need a FCC license. With the features listed above, one can see howthese radios would be ideal for skiers, hikers, hunters, and boaters. Order this twin pack and getout in it!
What's in the Box Two GMRS70012 2-way radios, belt clip, a user's manual, and a 90 day parts and laborwarranty.
