wat range should i buy huh? u guys here using d 5miles or 8miles type? juz went shoppin at sim lim square & tower, check out most of d shop from simlim sq to twr, one shop at simlim tower #02-23 offering the best rates ! motorola 5miles range w/o charger at $50, 8mile range with charger at $100
price still nego.

any1 wan to share huh?

 

I just collected a pair of 8mile mot talkabout w charger today at $90.

 

hey where u bought it?

 

I wanted to buy a 8 or 10 miles range motorola walkie too.

But the seller told me that some of the latest model 8-10 miles walkie do not work with the older 5 miles walkie.
AS a results I bought the 5miles one. cos most of the drivers in Singapore uses the 5miles walkie.

Unless u used the pair of 8-10 miles with your friends or family or it would be of limited use.

I forgot what is the 8-10 miles model, but just take note and check.

 

If only we can get something like what the police use. Coverage: All over SG.

 

I believe that they are using a digital handset walkie not like our analogue ones.

If u wish to comunicate though out the whole island, it can also be done by buying the motorola moblie *** walkie set, but need to pay a mthly subscribsion fee.
Just like those used by the taxi drivers.

I got it from a friend on another forum.

 

Any idea how much this FV500 or the FV500R is?
Need to get one and this model is tops at work.
The VOX sensitivity is better than the rest.
Only thing, the design is not really that fantastic.
