I have a set of high end motorola radios I carry w/ me when hunting, my dad carries the other one, we have 2 others for guests that may come to hunt. I also have an ear piece like the cell phone ones you see. When I am curious as to weather, I pull out the ear piece, and turn on the weather service and it tells me all that specific to the county I am in. It works great. I don't hunt anymore without my two way, even if i don't turn it on it's in the pack somewhere.
