With 18 miles of range, the Uniden GMR1838-2CK two-way radios offer you the freedom to go anywhere and do anything--from weekend hiking to just hanging out at the mall. These GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) radios are lightweight, palm sized, state-of-the-art communications devices, providing a maximum spread of 18 miles. This package comes complete with two radios and two NiMH rechargeable batteries as well as a dual-bay charging cradle.
Depending on your location, you can stay in contact with family and friends up to 18 miles away.
Be safe, not sorry with these GMRS radios. Their long-range communication capabilities means you're never out of touch, and two-way radio communications can ensure your safety when cell phone signals fade and fall short. (Actual range may vary depending on environmental and terrain conditions; see chart at right.) Use them at sporting events, to stay in contact with friends while camping, hiking, skiing or biking, or in conjunction with a neighborhood watch to ensure vital communications.
The GMR1838-2CK radios have a unique circuitry designed to dramatically extend the life of your batteries. If there is no transmission of incoming call for three seconds, your radio automatically switches to the Power Save mode. They also have a built-in battery strength meter to let you know when it’s time to change out your batteries. A large, backlit LCD keeps you informed in any conditions, with data including channel selection, privacy code selection and battery strength.

Customer Reviews
GOOD BARGAIN Good deal for 20 bucks. I bought 4 of these to keep track of the kids in the neighborhood. Works great but don't expect to come anywhere near the 18 mile range. Channels 1-7 and 15-22 are suppose to get "UP" to 18 miles but you need a license from the FCC ($80) to use them. The free channels (8-14) get "UP" to 5 miles. I would say more like up to 1 mile in the city where I am. I still say it's a good deal just to track the little ones.
Uniden GMR1838-2CK 2-Way 18 Mile 2 Pack GMRS/FRS Radios Poor reception and distance. At one mile in normal conditions reception was unclear. Over water and some land distance was down to 1/2 mile approximately and very static. Upon purchase I charged the batteries as stated in instructions and only received about 4 hrs worth of use and no talking during that time. Camping this weekend one radio battery went dead in less than one hour and this is after a full charge the day before. For the price you can't go wrong, for the quality well.... it's up to you!
More like 18 METERS I needed a pair of radios with a call signal because my father is invalid and I wanted something that he could page me. I go no farther than 5 miles so I thought this would be adequate.
IT ISN'T !
Best I could get was 2 blocks (about 300 yards). I live in a wood structured, single storied, suburb, and these POS can't even get to the nearest park (about 1/4 mile away). TOTALLY USELESS.
Unless you only need to talk within a few hundred feet, DO NOT BUY THESE RADIOS, mine are now in the junk drawer, awaiting some sucker at a yard sale.
