I work for a good sized Electrical Company in Chicago, IL and we are looking at upgrading our radio situation. What are the best 2 way radios to use on construction sites in Chicago? Some work is outdoors, some is indoors, and some is a mixture of the 2. I know VHF is horrible when having obstructions as they do not work through walls but if I am going to replace around 100 radios I definitely want to have the best information.
Thanks
