Radio Reccomendations

Missed the range requirement...only thing that would do that is an AM set at high wattage and good bounce conditions.

I've thought about putting repeaters in the vehicles, but that's overkill

Since i am completely unfamiliar with radio, can somebody please tell me if i can use these on the field or if they would best be used as crude jousting instruments with their super long antennae. thanks!

they are cb radios...dont bother just get some frs at walmart

you get what you pay for so buy what you can afford
