Thread: Best value hand held radio.

We’ve used 5w for years but they’re on their last legs so needed new ones. I bought the 2 watt gme mostly because you can usb charge them so don’t need another battery.m, and they’re a lot smaller. I figured I’d try them and if I noticed they weren’t going as far or as good as the 5w, I’d use them for light duties and get some 5w ones. Haven’t noticed a major difference yet for my style of hunting so haven’t gone back to 5w yet. Generally we’re hunting in the same catchment so don’t really need to go much up and over. The 2w go around corners just as good as the old 5w ones did.
