I bought these 2 way radios to use around the farm. Unfortunately they were useless about 1/2 mile away. I guess our terrain is too hilly. Maybe they will work in the woods, but not in the hills. I got free shipping from Amazon with this purchase, but when I returned them, they deducted the cost of the shipping from my refund, which I didn't have to pay in the first place. Read that in the fine print. It will make me reconsider buying things to try out.
