Editorial Reviews :
The small, compact Motorola TalkAbout T6220 allows you to keep in touch with others for up to two miles. With 14 channels and 38 privacy codes, this colorful green Family Radio Service two-way radio screens out interference from other radios.
The T6220 features 10 weather channels to provide up-to-the-minute reports and alerts on weather conditions. Additionally, it has VibraCall alert, which vibrates to notify you of incoming calls; 10 selectable call tones; and a visual indicator that lets you know when other radios are out of range.
Other features include Eavesdrop Reducer with three scramble settings and channel scan. This radio has a 35-hour talk time and runs on three AA alkaline batteries (sold separately).
The TalkAbout T6220 is covered by a one-year warranty.
Buyer Reviews :
So I didn't REALLY need these but, I wanted a set for those times, when I lose the little lady in one of those Meg-a-lo marts!!(Can you say HUGE Stores) The one thing I've noticed is, just HOW MANY folks use these radios for EXACTLY this same purpose. I've discovered some new found friends, while trying to find my significant other, in the deepest darkest parts of the store.
I'm not that excited with the over all quality of the radios. I've owned SEVERAL Motorola business radios in the past and, these(6220) fall short in quality.(Are you listening Motorola?!) I found that the back cover of the units doesn't fit tightly, and that rain could easily enter in through the open space. Considering that one of the MAIN selling points for these units is, 'RECREATIONAL' I would have thought that Motorola, would have paid better attention to this matter in manufacturing?!
As far as the range goes, well, it's fairly adequate for MY PURPOSES but, your mileage may vary. One thing I would HIGHLY recommend is, that while shopping for this type of radio, you ALSO consider a GRMS unit. I find that the FRS band is VERY active, and this poses some problems trying to get a clear channel at times.
So, would I purchase these units again?......Probably. Would I ALSO look at other units by another manufacturer....YES!!!! Bottom line, for the price, and the amount of time I'll use these, they work fine for me. --This text refers to the NiMH Graphite Black option.
