I'm thinking about getting the Motorola T5710 FRS 5 mile walkie talkie. Is this a good one to use for games outside. I do not own one yet but would like to pick one up before the May 1 game.
Thanks Jeff

When using FRS, expect only to get one or if you're "lucky" two miles, which leads me to assume they mean you can get five miles using GMRS.
As in other threads, it'd be to your benefit to get a radio with both the 3.5 and 2.5 jacks, as you'd be much better able to source the cooler accesories for them.

also some of the 5mile ones require a FCC licence of some sort. but you can always get a HAM operator to get one for you or order online.
