Well it will soon be the start of a new year. We take in a lot of bids from government agencies, private companies, and other organizations at this time of year. For those that have not worked with us, we keep our process simple, just give us a call at 1-800-584-1445. That is correct, no special forms or anything like that. You are busy and we want to keep the process as simple as possible.

We offer a full range of commercial class radios. We have everything from traditional walkie talkies, to repeaters, to mobile radios, to intrinsically safe and P25 two way radios. So the next time you need a bid for two way radios, contact us. We work with everyone from large government agencies, to utility companies, to police and fire departments. We operate with no hassles or hidden surprises, and deliver on time, on budget.

This is just a quick reminder that the current Kenwood and Motorola rebate offers available on many business class radios end this Thursday.

We are still taking orders and will continue to ship them out until 6pm EST tomorrow. So no more waiting to place that order! This is your last chance to order Cobra LI-7200-2WXVP Two Way Radios for $49.99 or Midland GXT740VP3 Radios with Charger for $39.99.

We will then be closed for the holidays and we will be back on Monday the 28th. We want to wish all of our friends and customers a great Christmas!

That is correct. For a while now we have been doing basic repairs on Motorola XTN radios, and we have decided to expand the service a bit. We are able to repair: broken antennas, damaged speakers, cracked cases, broken battery connectors, worn/damaged keypads, worn/damaged PTT buttons, and other basic parts.

Most repairs are less than $50, though pricing depends on the complexity and number of parts needed of course. You will need to give us a call (1-800-584-1445) to schedule the service and also to see if what you need done is covered. We want to expand this service to more radios models and manufacturers, but for now it is just for Motorola XTN series radios (XU1100, XU2100, XU2600, XV1100, XV2100, XV2600, etc...).

Here is a fun article about a car that has just about every radio you can imagine installed in it. I know a lot of us keep several radios around, but we have all been beat. I think.

The Cobra LI-7200-2WXVP two way radio is a full-featured GMRS radio. It has 5 watts of power (the maximum allowed by law), 10 NOAA weather channels, silent paging, 10 channel memory, and a lithium battery (They can be used up to 12 hours without needing to be recharged).

We have them in stock and ready to ship out for a special price of $49.99. For a limited time we are also offering $5.00 shipping!

The LI-7200-2WXVP two way radios have great range, features, and a great price. Each pack comes with two Cobra LI-7200 WX two way radios, two belt clips, one dual pocket desktop charger, and lithium rechargeable batteries.

Are you looking for radios that are a bit advanced, but still easy and fun to use? Give the TALKABOUT SX600R Two Way Radios ($39.99) a look. They are GMRS walkie talkies and have a range of about one mile. One great feature, you can recharge them using a mini USB cable. For a limited time, they even come with a free XLT earbud! The radios come as a set of two SX600R walkie talkies, with belt clips, rechargeable battery packs, and a dual desktop charger.

Many experienced hikers and campers just will not head out without a set of radios or a GPS device. They are great for keeping everyone safe, and out of trouble. Garmin has radios that combine an GMRS radio with a GPS device. They are also water proof and repeater capable.

The Garmin Rino 520 HCx Two-way Radio with GPS (349.99) is a full-feature 5 watt GMRS radio and has a full color map screen. The TracBack feature that allows you to retrace your path. You are also able to share your position with other Rino users.

The Garmin Rino 120 Two Way Radio with GPS ($199.99) is a great entry level GMRS radio and GPS device. It features a two tone map screen and has 1 watt of transmit power. Like the 520 you can share your position with other Rino users.

Check out our entire line of Garmin Radios with GPS, and let us know if you have any questions.

This is a great deal on a great set of radios. The Midland GXT740VP3 is a favorite around here. It has 5 watts of power (the maximum allowed in a GMRS radio), NOAA weather channels and alerts, water resistant, and has 22 standard FRS/GMRS channels. This radio is loaded with features for the price, is very durable, and has some of the best range available in a GMRS radio.

For the holidays we have them here and ready to ship for $39.99 and $5.00 shipping! This special, limited $20.00 reduction in price will only last until December 31, 2009!

We now have the updated and improved Motorola CLS1410 radios in stock. They are almost identical to the original version except for some minor refinements. They now have a 1200mAh lithium battery instead of the old 1100mAh along with an improved antenna design. This means they will have a bit more range and clarity. The CLS1410 also has a new exterior that is textured for better grip and is also now milspec. These are some welcome improvements to what is already one of the best budget radios around.
