______________________________________________________________________________________________I'd like a recommendation for radios club overnight yurt/hut trips, and I know others have put way more thought into this than I have. I know the club usually uses a higher GMRS channel.
Want the obvious, in rough priority order:
long range in forest / mountains
reasonable battery life
simple to use
able to recharge/replace batteries on multi day trip; I have some of those batteries packs with usb output for phone recharging that could be used to recharge?
lightweight - longer battery life more important
I'm not particularly price sensitive; above more important
Thoughts on these?
