But wait! There's more!

Item 3: some good dependable FRS-onlt Motorola Talkabout T5200 
handhelds. Specs:

Three AA cells
Can use alkaline or rechargeable cells but has
NO RECHARGE CAPABILITY IN RADIO
FRS channels only (14 frequencies)
1/2W xmit power
power / volume knob
belt clip
monitor button
time-out timer
key lock
38 CTCSS codes
5 different call tones
"roger" beep
battery meter
low-battery alert

These are your standard FRS radios, in that they work very well in close 
proximity or in very clear environments. Think around the block or the 
campsite (remember, only 1/2W and 462MhZ! They have really good audio 
and a low battery drain.

I have four of them, $12.50 each.
