Midland 75507

Pros: 2-mile range; Easy use; Tiny size; Inexpensive; Uses standard "AA" batteries

Cons: Speaker maybe a tad weak...maybe not.

The Bottom Line: I have to say that I'm impressed with these radios. They're toy-like in their size, but not in their performance.

Review: I got a pair of Midland FR75-507 radios in anticipation of a move that my wife and I were going to make, so we could talk between the U-Haul and the car while on the road. She spent a lot of time doing the "point and click" online money-getters, so we...

Pros: price ,features,brand reliability

Cons: dearth of available accessories,darn things fall over too easy

Review: After much research,I decided on this one.Midland is an established manufacturer of CB and two way radios-I once owned a hand held CB radio from them,which was very durable.The other trusted name in two way radios is Motorola,however,the name alone...

Pros: Very durable...also had small "ducky" antenna for durability

Cons: 2 mile radius is shortenned by obstacles

Review: I bought three of these radios from a large auctionhouse (Ubid.com) not really knowing whether or not I'd like these radios. I bought them as an alternative to using the telephone (since I only have one line), since my wifes work was only a mile or so...

Pros: Small, works well, sturdy antenna

Cons: Control switch is very tiny

Review: These radios were given to my sons (ages 7 and 9) for Christmas. We have two of them. They were a good choice because we wanted something beyond the “toy” walkie-talkie sets that don’t end up working well. We wanted to have real radios that would be...

Pros: Compact design, easy to operate.

Cons: No CTCSS or "Quiet Code" option.

Review: The Midland "SpeakEasy" Model 75-507 FRS Radio, a very nice little radio for the price.

Overview -
In May of 1996, the Federal Communications Commission created the Family Radio Service Band (or FRS Band) occupying 14 distinct...

Pros: Very Affordable, Smaller than most all other FRS radios

Cons: Not the clearest sounding radio on the market, No sub channels

The Bottom Line: LED display hard to see in daylight. Outdated product. "Muddy" voices on receiving radio. Better choices out there for very little more money.

Review: Ok, so it's not a terrible radio. I purchased my pair back in summer 2000. At the time I was very happy with them but as of late wanted more range and clairity. I decided to try some of the the newer GMRS radios. Took back a set of audiovox from...
