I got a couple of Motorola Talkabout T5200's, and I'm planning on using them on the trail. Not to replace my CB but to compliment it. Anyone got any of these? Good, bad, junk?

Yup they're the FRS band. They worked great today, and like Bill said were great for spotting. I don't know about distance though as it was just the 2 of us, I'm hoping to be able to split them between different trail groups and see how they work at a distance. But so far I'm really happy with them.

I have a unit like those but i can't remember the brand name, Bryan is using it when he's on the trails with us. The range doesn't seem very good on his, sometimes he's talking and if i have the squelch up on my radio i don't even hear him when i can hear everyone else. Still i would think they'de be great for spotting like you said.
