Summary of Motorola T280 Rechargeable 2-Way Radio (Black)Talkabout 280NIMH Baltic Purple With an impressive two-mile range, the TalkAbout 280 SLK packs way more power than your childhood walkie-talkies. This two-way radio sports 14 channels with 38 privacy codes to help block out unwanted messages. The striking design makes the radio's exterior as cool as its features. In our tests, we didn't encounter any problems with interference or with finding a free channel to talk on. The reception was clear, without too much static. We especially liked the scan lock, which scans through the channels until it finds an active channel. Scan lock automatically locks the channel in, letting you either listen discreetly or talk with other parties. Most of the buttons are intuitive enough to figure out, although we do suggest a quick read of the manual in order to fully appreciate the power of the TalkAbout. The placement of the talk button, which is inconveniently located in the dead center of the radio, makes it difficult to speak while holding down the button. You can solve this problem by attaching a microphone to the radio and using the VOX (voice activation) feature, which allows hands-free talking. The TalkAbout 280 SLK is a great choice for anyone needing a powerful two-way radio for activities such as hiking, skiing, taking road trips, or shopping. Pros: - Impressive two-mile range
- Clear reception without static
- Small enough to fit in your pocket
- Appealing design
Cons: - Inconveniently located talk button
TalkAbout 280 SLK's are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand or slip into a shirt pocket. Yet these radios are packed with enough power to deliver crystal clear communication up to two miles depending on terrain and conditions.
