Thank you for the info on the radio. i was worried about the license part since i didnt really want to study for a license test. but thank you again for clearing up my confusion.
You're welcome. Glad it was helpful!
@@rmatvmc thanks you again this is my first step into radio. I can’t wait to get my radio.
One issue with these two radios is you cannot hear FRS, Midland does not include those channels on their mobile radios. Many families use HT FRS radios only, thus mobile users will not be able to hear them, and if they need assistance, oh-well.
What would you suggest?
@@Max-kn9yi I would suggest to first buy a hand held GMRS radio. (General Mobile Radio Service)
You can get a Baofeng UV5G plus for about $24 and it will transmit on 5w and you can comm with other GMRS users on the trail. GMRS/FRS are line of sight and signals are limited based upon the type of terrain.
--> FRS are limited to a fixed antenna and max 2w transmit power.
--> GMRS are typically limited to 5w on hand held and can have a removable or exchangeable antenna
--> GMRS mobile or base station units can transmit up to 50w
1) FRS and GMRS simplex (radio to radio) share channels 1 through 14
2) GMRS uses channels 1 through 22 with an additional 8 channels to be used with repeaters
3) A good way to learn is to get a couple Baofeng UV-5G Plus GMRS Handheld Radio from amazon for $24 each and learn how they work.
4) The sad hams will say the Baofengs are cheap Chinese junk, but the FACT of the matter is they work really well....I have two of them and I also have an expensive Wouxun handheld that does not really perform much better, even when going through our repeater here at the ranch.
4) For GMRS use, you are technically required to navigate the FCC dumpster fire website and pay $35 for a call sign and the 'legal' ability to press the transmit button on your GMRS radio...so there is that, but my guess is the majority of users could care less about this.
2 questions, #1 is the upgrade from the 275 to 575 a plug and play where as we don't need to re-run wiring or connections ? #2 is why aren't there any videos on what "typical" setting should be at or "best general settings" ect...... ?!?!
Wanting to install GMRS radios in my Mobile Home toter to use instead of the CBs . The 14'x70' steel sided and roofed mobile homes make talking to the rear escort difficult . Would the 275 be good for this ? The escort is about 250 feet behind me , but no line of sight . Is there a package with a Ghost or updated antennae ? Thanks for the review and any advice 👍
The Midland MXT275 would be great. There is a 3db Ghost antenna from Midland that you can get separately.
Does this radio have a talk permit tone sound? Like the Motorola and Kenwood radios do.
I'm this video you mention that you can't do intercom with the MXT574 but it does have an intercom port (next to the ext. speaker port). It mentions it in the manual as well.
After doing some digging, it does look like they have an intercom jack. Very interesting that they don't show that anywhere in the product details. I would reach out to Midland to get more info on that and how/if you are able to us the intercom.
Thank you for making the only good video on radios
No fan? Metal plate covering opening? Cat6 with RJ45 ends for extension cable.
With waterproof/dustproof - Many times they are have "Frog Skin" on the fan outlet holes. - They keep dust/water and still allow air thru.
do you have to tune the 4x whip antenna?
The antenna will come to you pre-tuned.
Sorry for a completely newb question , but will this radio work off of fully charged truck battery if the battery is not in the truck ? , say the battery is sitting on the floor in your living room.. can you connect the radio to the battery and it will work ?
You might not get the best service inside a home but there's no reason it wouldn't work.
Who uses these other than for offroading?
These are popular with outdoor and powersports enthusiasts, off-roaders, overlanders, farmers, and RV owners.
Construction, heavy equipment… it a lot easier to push to talk, rather than calling on a cell phone to say, “a little to the left.”
I wonder if it will be nuisance getting mega range grabbing other ppls traffic when your buddies are just a hundred yards ahead of you
can i plug this in to my cigarette lighter port for power?
Yes, it will come with a cigarette lighter adapter cord you can use if you don't want to hard wire it to your battery.
Only on the MXT275 not the MXT575
MXT575 Midland says not to use a cigarette light plug. Midlands reasoning it is up to 50 watts, and those cigarette light plugs cannot safely handle it. Go through the firewall then direct-connect to the battery. Doing that you will eliminate any fire and wire damage to your vehicle. Myself, I would do the same with the MXT275. My experience has been with unrelated to Midland devices, I have blown a few fuses using devices in those receptacles; better safe than sorry.
Why do you keep saying “UHF radios” as if that’s some other different thing? GMRS *is* UHF, as is the 70cm Amateur band.
first time cost for ham lice maybe $45.00. to renew license $35.00. WHOA! the same price to get a gmrs license both have their advantages VERY minute difference be truthful not fan boy
You ABSOLUTELY DO NOT need a license to operate one of these! The FCC doesn't give two shits. I'm an over the road trucker and there's this guy channel jamming 19 all day. You can hear him all across the United States. He has been reported numerous times! The FCC doesn't care.
Yes, you do need a license. Okay, okay, any dufus can purchase these then without any license blast away; D'uh. Sadly there are idiots with and without a license making horrible experience for users.
This is the reason to GET the license. Don't be part of the problem. It takes less than an hour.
