Notes - Positives of the MG160A are the ease of use and low price. You can buy a number of these to leave in bug-out bags and designated places. It is easy enough for everyone in your household to use, including children. That being said, it has very limited capabilities, as we tested its range to go out only about half a mile in dense urban terrain. Comes with 2 radios per package.
