Hello, I seems to have hijacked Nacoma's thread. So here is a new one. So I've read a few different threads, and here's what I've gathered. -Dont get Baofengs, or UHFs, they need a licence -Get Motorola, binatone, or any other PMR446 radios. -Get a radio with iVOX/VOX settings -Don't get military replica   I realised that different PMR446 radios offer different number of channels. How many channels will I need, and will they be compatible with different makes and models?   Cheers
