Product Description
GMRS-V2 GMRS Two Way Radio
Easiest Customizable GMRS Two Way Radio
The GMRS-V2 has received a major chipset revision from our previous groundbreaking GMRS-V1. The GMRS-V2 has 200 completely programmable channels that you can arrange, modify, and use as: GMRS, NOAA, or Scanner channels. You can quickly add or remove multiple GMRS channels to any location, using our quick and easy on-board menus.
5W Maximum Power & Changeable Antenna
The GMRS-V2 has the maximum allowed power output of 5W. The GMRS-V2 uses a standard SMA female antenna, allowing for use with vehicle antennas such as the Nagoya UT-72G for GMRS use.
Dual Watch and Dual PTT
The GMRS-V2 has one built-in receiver that can simultaneously monitor two channels (semi duplex). The radio chassis has two push-to-talk buttons, the upper PTT transmits on the upper display; while the lower PTT transmits to the lower display.
Want to keep it simple? The GMRS-V2 also offers synced display and single PTT modes to simply monitor a single channel as well.

BTECH BL-8 USB-C Charging
The BL-8 battery now includes USB-C charging, providing users with greater flexibility and convenience in powering their devices. With this feature, you can charge the battery directly using a USB-C cable, or you can still use the CH-8 desktop charger if you prefer.

VOX Hands Free Operation
Use the radio hands-free with VOX. You can use the included dual PTT earpiece kit or your own preferred accessory to transmit when the radio detects your voice for hands-free operation. It also works with the QHM22 Dual PTT Speaker Mic and the QHM07 Surveillance earpiece kit.
CHIRP Programmable
The GMRS-V2 is ready to go out of the box, but can be customized further with CHIRP support (custom channel names, custom boot up name, and more).

GMRS-V2: A Better Receiver than our Imitators!
Unlike our peers we do not take an existing radio off the shelf and simply apply ‘a different firmware’. The GMRS‑V2 was from the ground up – built for GMRS! It takes time to properly build a product dedicated for a specific purpose. A properly designed radio, means that the receiver and transmitter will outperform in clarity, reach, and performance in comparison to those other radios that simply had that magic ‘firmware flash’.
Common Questions and Answers:
Q: What is the charge and usage time?
A: The radios will fully charge in 3-4 hours, and the battery will last 18 hours on normal usage.
Q: Is it compatible with other walkie talkies?
A: Yes, it supports all CTCSS and DCS tones used by other brands and will operate with all FRS/GMRS radios.
Q: What is the maximum range?
A: Range varies on topography: Repeater Use: Up to 100 miles | Hill to Valley: 36 miles | Open Flat Terrain: 3-5 miles | Urban/Outside Buildings: ~1 mile
