There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It is very easy to push the PTT button by just reaching up to my collar and squeezing the small unit with the PTT button on one side. I am the referee on the crew and often also have a separate stadium PA system microphone attached to my body. So far it has not been a problem - I have not confused the crew radio with the stadium microphone. That could be very potentially embarrassing if I did! I keep the crew radio on my left side and when I have a stadium microphone, I attach it to my right side. So it is very easy to keep them separated.
The earpiece is small and is not intrusive to the ear. It stays in the ear and is not uncomfortable even after several hours.
The battery life has not been a problem. I make sure the radios are fully charged before each game. We have used them on high power every time so far and have not seen a low battery indicator by the end of the game (there is no battery level indicator until the battery is low so there is no way to know how much battery power is left). Our longest game so far lasted 4:17 hours. The batteries did not indicate low by the end of the game. We had a two hour lightening delay and kept the radios on during the delay to monitor the weather and communicate with each other during the delay. The radios were very handy because three of the officials accompanied the teams back to the locker rooms at the school (about a 10 minute walk from the field) while two of us stayed at the field to monitor the lightening in the sky. We were able to radio each other during the delay so we could easily keep the teams informed as to how much longer the delay would last. In Ohio, there is an automatic 30 minute delay each time we either see lightening or hear thunder. The 30 minute clock was reset several times and the radios made it very easy to notify my fellow officials at the school each time we restarted the 30 minute clock. Both teams appreciated this up to the second information. Near the end of the delay, when I hadn't seen lightening for 20 minutes, we were able to have the teams start the walk back over to the field so that they would be able to walk onto the field as the final 30 minute delay expired. In that way, the radios helped us to keep the game on time as much as possible.
I did have some difficulty hearing my fellow officials this past Friday night at a game. It was the largest crowd we have had so far this season and the noise was in the stadium was loud. We managed even with this problem but there were times when I had no idea what was being said.
Occasionally we also have two officials talking at the same time. When that happens, you cannot hear either one - it just sounds garbled. I don't know how to fix that problem other than to ask one of them to repeat what they just said.
These radios do not have privacy codes. That was one of my concerns before purchasing them. I was afraid that someone else in the area or in the stadium might start interfering with our communications. So far that has not happened. But it is a risk. I also have to warn the crew each week to be careful what they say because the radios are public - anyone with the proper equipment within broadcast range can hear what we say.
There are better radio systems for football officials available on the market. Even wireless systems. But they are more expensive. I spent a total of $160 for 6 of these radios plus 6 of the surveillance style earpieces. Considering that high school football officials don't get paid much money, I thought that was a reasonable expense to incur in order to make our jobs much easier. So far, I think it was money well spent.
The biggest problem I have had so far is keeping one certain member of my crew from dominating use of the radios! He won't shut up. But that isn't a problem with the radios. LOL.
SO far we really like them and hopefully they will be not only fun but useful for us. Just what we were wanting!!!
1st, as I said range is an issue, if you are inside a building of any kind you may get about 1/8th of a mile. Maybe a mile if you go outside, but certainly not 24 miles. 2nd, the volume's highest setting of 8 is not very loud unless you are in a quiet office. I drive around on loud forklifts and need to communicate with the office staff, so I bought the accessory earplug and collar ptt mic. It works well with this combo. I actually turn the volume down to 4 with the earplug because it's loud. I clip the mic to the collar of my shirt so I don't have to reach down and grab the entire radio. It's very convenient that I don't have to fumble around everytime someone calls me. 3rd, the clip on the back is not very strong, if the radio catches on something and gets hung up the clip will simply break. That happened to two of the four that I purchased. As a side note, I should mention that when the clips broke the radio dropped straight onto concrete and didn't even have a mark. I have personally dropped mine about 10 or 12 times and they still work. Good radio, would have given it 5 stars aside from the 3 things mentioned above.

Actualización: Los radios funcionan tan bien, que he comprado otro par más. Recomiendo mucho adquirir para estos radios los audífonos de vigilancia Midland AVPH3, los cuales funcionan excelente y para situaciones en las que no puedas hacer mucho ruido o por el mismo ruido no puedas escuchar la bocina del radio, van geniales.
