GXT740VP3

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 have a Midland radio that you all might be interested in. The Midland Base Camp XT511 combines a NOAA weather radio, AM/FM radio, and GMRS radio. The XT511 is perfect for campers and other outdoor enthusiast to use as a base station / weather radio.

One great feature is that it can also operate on battery power, you can plug it into a power source, or by turning the Dynamo crank. It is a smart idea to have a crank powered radio for emergency use, especially in areas with harsh weather conditions. And since this a GMRS radio, just add a set of Midland GXT740VP3 Radios, and you will have the communications part of a home emergency kit covered.

The XT511 and a set of FRS or GMRS radios is also great for a small home business since your family members can use the GMRS radios. They could even work as a base station and radio set for a small farm, or outdoor business that needs to stay informed of the weather.
