worth the money

(4 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Feb 28, 2001

As it often happens, new model *LOST* some nice features of older model (frs 250):

1) swing antenna 2) belt clip 3) strap

also, "call" feature is not compatible with older model, so if you want additional stations -- you can talk, but "call" tone from old model won't get to the new one.

Battery indicater is not very linear and once its not full-- get ready to replace 4 AAAs. When batteries are low, high tone pitch replaces incoming voice until you lower the volume

Apart from that, Cobra provides perfect communicator for the money with all you need -- 14x38 channels, good battery life, weather resistant. No need to pay more to get Motorolla.

To consider: 1) audiovox (model with 14x38 channels) 2) higher end Cobra with vibra alert 3) never buy FRS with less than 14x38 channels as air is saturated with users!
