CBs can go farther but they cost a bit more, but two-ways you normally get in pairs.

2 way radio's but if they are the same make it shouldnt be a problem. thats why i posted the link to walmart. that radio has 22 channels and 99 private channels.

the link again for anyone http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...Q%26A+Exchange
something i found about multiple radios.

Purchase multiple radios from the same manufacturer. Although all FRS and GMRS radios use the same frequencies, their other features (such as so-called privacy codes) don't always work between brands. GMRS radios share some channels with FRS radios. If you're replacing an FRS radio, buy a GMRS unit.

They're fun.

Its only worth it if 5+ get them. Makes the long ass cruise go by faster.. you can talk **** over the radio, play games.
Also comes in handy if we space the people with radios out, so we can call turns ahead of time and have like 2 in the front.. 2 in the middle, and the some in the back, that way we can get the herd of cobalts over to the right lanes and such in time.
