- Will these really work at a 25-mile distance?
- The 25-mile range is a theoretical maximum across open water or between mountain peaks. In typical suburban or wooded environments, expect a range of 0.5 to 2 miles.
- Are these radios waterproof?
- They are water-resistant, meaning they can handle splashes and light rain, but they should not be fully submerged in water.
- Can I use other batteries in these units?
- Yes, if the rechargeable NiMH packs run out, you can typically use standard AA alkaline batteries as a backup.
- Is a license required to operate the ACXT390?
- These operate on FRS/GMRS frequencies; while FRS channels do not require a license, using high-power GMRS channels may technically require an FCC license in the US.
