From cordless phones to two-way radios to radar detectors, the company makes electronic wonders an everyday occurrence. As one of the world's largest manufacturers of cordless phones and consumer communications devices, chances are there's a Uniden product that's already making things more convenient in and around your home.PRODUCT FEATURES: General Mobile Radio (GMR); Range Transmits Up to 8 Miles; PowerBoost Key; 22 Channels; 38 CTCSS Privacy Codes; Backlit LCD Display; Battery Strength Meter; NOAA Weather Channels; Keypad Lock; Channel Scan; Channel Monitor; 5 Call Tones; Roger Beep; Belt Clip Included; Recharge Capable; Charging Cradle with 2 NiMH Batteries; Headset Jack.Uniden's GMR885-2CK includes a pair of lightweight, palm-sized General Mobile Radio Service radios. Use them to maintain contact with family and friends at sporting events or while hiking, skiing, outdoors, or use them as critical tools in a neighborhood watch. These compact, state-of-the-art devices are equipped with many features.
Each GMR885-2CK radio is equipped with a user-selectable Voice Operated Transmitter (VOX) that you can use for hands-free voice transmissions when used with an optional headset and microphone (the Uniden HS2467). Transmission is initiated by speaking into the remote microphone instead of by pushing the PTT button.
The GMR885-2CK radios can also receive weather broadcasts from the NOAA National Weather Service. In weather-radio-alert mode, the system functions as it does in GMRS mode, but also monitors the selected weather channel for alerts when not communicating. While using the weather radio, you will not be able to receive GMRS communications.
Each radio works on 22 channels (15 GMRS, 7 FRS) and offers 38 CTCSS privacy codes you can use when talking with members of your party. In order to speak to someone, each of you must be set to the same channel and CTCSS code.
Channel scan lets you easily scan all 22 channels. When an active channel is detected, the radio will pause on that channel until the channel is clear. Then, after a 2 second delay, the radio will continue scanning. To transmit on a given channel, press the PTT button or power-boost button while the scan is paused on your desired channel.
A unique circuit dramatically extends the life of the batteries. If there is no transmission or incoming call within 3 seconds, the radios will switch to power-save mode. (They may still receive transmissions in this mode.)
Other features include a backlit LCD, keypad lock, channel monitor, a choice of 5 different call tones, and a roger beep.
Power the radios using the supplied rechargeable NiMH battery packs or 4 AAA alkaline batteries each (not included). If you use the rechargeable NiMH battery packs, the 2 radios can be charged simultaneously using the charging cradle. Each radio has a battery-level meter on its display to indicate the status of the batteries.
