The generic name is FRS Radio (Family Radio Service). Wife and I have a
couple of the Talkabouts. The federally established FRS range is supposed to
be two miles -- usually sufficient on most ski areas. It has enough power to
go around a tree or two. I've been in the paddock at Nationals and talked to
my wife in our room at the Raceway Inn.
