- Do I need a license to use the MXT275VP4?
- Yes. Transmitting on GMRS in the US requires an FCC GMRS license, which covers you and your immediate family. Listening does not require one.
- How is it different from the standard MXT275?
- The VP4 bundle adds a 3dB gain roll bar mount antenna and a microphone extension cable. The radio itself is the same 15-watt GMRS MicroMobile unit.
- What is the range?
- Range depends on terrain and antenna placement. On open ground with the included roll bar antenna, GMRS users commonly report several miles between mobiles; hills and trees cut that sharply.
- Can I use it on an ATV or UTV?
- Yes, that is what it is built for. The small control head and mic-mounted controls suit tight cabs, and the roll bar mount antenna is made for cage mounting.
- Does it have weather channels?
- No. This model covers GMRS channels only, so it is not a substitute for a weather radio.
- What comes in the box?
- The radio, microphone with controls, power and antenna connections, the 3dB gain roll bar mount antenna, and the microphone extension cable.
