This is a nice little radio and fits into a jacket pocket. I bought a set for a bike trip through Europe and they worked without a hitch. with so many frequencies and private settings you’ll never run out of channels to talk on. Also the beauty of these radios is that they can monitor two channels at once. They have a whole raft of features which to be honest you probably don’t need, or are likely to use, but if like me you’re a gadget freak you’ll love the extra stuff it can do.
It has a vox setting but personally I prefer the use of a push to talk switch when riding as I find wind noise can set it off.
The battery life is very good, lasting over 20 hours of fair usage over three days before needing a charge.
The only minor down side is that you get only one base station and one charger for both radios. I also thought I had read some where that they are water resistant but it does not say that in the intsructions when they turned up but sitting in my tank bag or jacket pocket was all the water proofing they required.
Would I buy again… To be honest I’d probably go for the next model down and save a few quid, but I’m not disappinted with it and the gadget freak in me is happy as larry
good bits:
* Nice little radio that fits into your Jacket pocket or tank bag
*Vox feature
*can monitor two channels at once.
*Good battery life and
Bad bits:
*It works over a resonable distance but in flat open roads of Germany we could not get anything like the distance quoted in the advert.
*Not water resistant
* Lots of features to scroll through to get what you want.
* Can be a little confusing initially

Mt975 Walkie Talkie Radios Twin Pack With Batteries And Charger Uk Plug
I bought these Walkie talkies along with the NEW Cobra Covert Earhook & Mic with PTT Ear Hangerand together they make a great Combo.
I regularly use these when i am out cycling with my friend or friends and they can use different Walkie talkies (binatone) and i can still Recieve their messages loud and clear, and with the rodger beeb, you can clearly identify when the person talking has finished and who it is if you are using different sets ( which i do often).
They are really user friendly and are easy to navigate and find things to turn them on and off by pressing a button a few times to you see what you want.
The Backlight on the Display makes using them at night a lot easier.
All things considered… i have not complaints about this product, only praise.

I bought these to use for holidays. My wife loves spending an age in shops that i have no interest in. So when on holiday abroad we would wander off. Now we can do this but still keep in touch using these radios. They seem to work fine whichever country we have taken them to usually up to 200m apart. It has a useful call facility and transmissions have been clear. They are small enought o keep in a pocket, clip onto a belt or carry in a handbag. They give us more independence when on holiday without fear of losing each other and without the costs of mobile phone use abroad. We even used them in duty free at airports until certain airports saw them as threats so we had to start checking them in with the bigger luggage.
I have also found it really useful for my 8 yr old daughter for playing outside. I can now send her out with one of the radios and still know where she is at all times. It also allows her to call me to ask questions like “can i go to….”. I can also get her back in time for tea etc. She loves it as it gives her freedom too. When i’m indoors and my daughter outdoors, i would suggest the range drops to about 500m or less. Battery life is a few days but easily recharged. We also use it in the UK now for general shopping (even at Tescos).

i own this product, i use in a snowboard trip in mountain and it work fine in a big ski area! we was in trip with two cars and we have only one gps, it was easy to communicate with each other, we trip 2700 km and without this i think i had a large phone bill. its easy to use and set the channels, in big ski areas so many people use walkie talkies and you should activate secret channels because anyway the walkie talkie interference with others….
in overall i think is a good product and its cheap
so if you are thinking to buy one choose the Cobra MT 975

We recently purchased a town house and our three year old sleeps on the top floor. Being a worry pot I wanted something that he could call us on if he needed us, after looking at all options we found this walkie talkie and it has been the best thing ever. He finds it easy to push the button to call us if needed, and can also play with it during the day. The battery lasts really well and when it requires charging it doesn’t take too long at all. Overall we are all very pleased with it and would recommend this to any one.
