kfblackz28 got a reaction from DanW in Jeeps & Radios
First trail GMRS use and man, do I prefer that over CB. Still have the CB installed in the Jeep as it will be a secondary form of comms for others that haven't seen the light yet. Running trails in Moab. Ran Elephant hill yesterday and on the way out, the team leader was well over 5 miles out and some generous but not too heavy terrain between us and we were talking back an forth as if we were standing next to each other.
Oh yeah!

I like your comments. I switched to GMRS HT and installed in my new Jeep mounted to the passenger hand bar. Did not even install my old CB from the old Jeep, but picked up a CB handheld if I ever need it...
Happy Jeeping in Moab.

Just completed a GMRS test between my Jeep and the significant other. We both have Midland MXT400 w/ 6db antenna mounted on her JK and my TJ.
Over 40 miles from Northern Colorado into Wyoming just south of Cheyenne.
My standing elevation was at 5K' and hers traveling maxed at 6.1K' with some moderate terrain signal shadowing along the way. Clear voice typically and 3 to 5 on RX.

I have a TJ and both sides are Teraflex mounts. They make them for both sides.

Guilty! TJ owner here. I'm just trying to justify spending $45 on a SWR meter at this juncture.

I wonder how many of us on here are actually Jeep addicts with a radio problem as well
