question 4 Hornster

Hi there,

Could you tell me where you got your radios from? My brother was going to get some for me for Xmas....... and today gave me the money to get them myself - great timing - we leave Sat. Did you go for 3k range?

Hoping you'll get to read this,
Many thanks Very Happy

Sorry for the late reply but I was at the gym preparing for the gruelling week of extreme skiing that I am going to put my body through - LOL! No, but seriously, I was at the gym.

Very Happy

I bought my 2 Motorola T5522 complete with a number of accessories and chargers etc for £69.99 (including free next day delivery by courier) from:

Cheers Robert -

Have contacted my local Comet, they haven't got the Motorola ones in stock, but they do have Oregon (5k) ones @ £30 inc chargers. Going to look tomorrow.

Hi again -

I saw these ones, didn't see whether 3 or 5 K.

Hope your gym session went OK. I set out last week with good intentions to do a class each day until I go.
Mon a.m Step Class + Slippery floor = Pulled calf muscle Crying
Have to be satisfied with Aqua classes + sauna now.

Have a great hol Very Happy

I have done extensive research on all of the tw-way radios on offer at the momment that fall into the licence-free category i.e. PMR446 and 0.5W capacity and have found the Motorola range to be the choice of preference for may users, hence my choice for the T5522. Saying that, I am sure that other makes will perform very well and certainly suffice for the type of use you are looking for.

As for my gym session, yes thank you, it was good. My training and workouts are specific to mountaineering as that is my sport/hobbie. But, it does help when skiing. The stronger the leg musles are the less the chance of knee injury!

My better half and I fly out on Saturday from Gatwick and believe me when I say that it can't come soon enough!!

Have a great holiday skiing/boarding my fellow enthusiast.
