Not really what we're here for, but I'll show our new member some hospitality...

Welcome to the PC Guide forums! ;)

There are walkie talkies that advertise a 5 mile range (maybe a little more). But most of them say in small print "line of sight - may vary based on terrain." Which basically means that if you go outside and if our spouse/child/other goes outside and if your house is on the same street as your work and if the street is straight with no curves without a lot of big trees in front yards in between you... (boy, that's a lot of and if's), THEN they'll prolly work well enough to carry on a conversation.

Interested in HAM radio? :o
