I am the lucky one hunting with Charlie in Saskatchewan. Thanks for the info Skeeter. One more question. Do you know what type (if any) of 2 way radio would work for our hunt?
First post so welcome if new or welcome back if your just coming back...LOL
No problems glad to help if/when I can.I hope you guys have a great hunt and time.
As far as 2 ways we use Midland 650's GMRS(5 watt), they are by far the best ones i have personally used. In the forest 2 mile range is real under most conditions. In areas that aren't as tough on frequency we have gotten 4-5 miles out the Midlands. That is double or more then any Motorola, Cobra, etc GMRS could do IME. However in all honesty I don't think you need to worry about 2 ways. I doubt very highly you'll be with in range of charlie to use one.If the outfitter/guides use 2 ways for communication they will provide them to you.Just my take, I'd refer or direct the question to your outfitter before buying or packing them.
