<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Comic Sans MS">Have any of you had experience with Midland GMRS radios? I am interested in 5 watt GXT500 radios which claim a 14 mile range (line-of-sight). My guess is that they might be able to reach from Upper to Lower Basin (around 7 miles of signal blocking terrain). Am especially interested in knowing how batteries hold up when transmitting on 5 watts.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Comic Sans MS">Am hoping someday for a radio that will reach from Norris to Upper Basin. Would have come in handy this week.</FONT>
