Off-Road.com have published a review of Motorola's EM1000 TalkAbout Radios. 'Motorola considers this package to be their “total emergency preparedness communication device”. With such features as a built in LED flashlight and the ability to receive weather radio communications, I think they are off to a great start. There are 11 free accessible weather channels, 7 of which are NOAA. The TalkAbout radios also have other very important features like the ability to receive transmissions from 20 miles away. Now, although we did not test this function at 20 miles, there were times when I was separated from the crew and an estimate of distance was over 1 ½ to 2 miles away. The EM1000 functioned just as if we were standing right beside each other. And that was in a densely wooded area.'
