One thing I have learned, is that the advertised range is for the upper channels only, 15 thru 22 (high power GMRS). Channel 1 thru 14 are considered FRS which is low power. I assume the Midlands are the same?

My point is that if anyone in the group has an older set (which only goes up to 14), we will have stay on the low power channel (1 thru 14) which shouldn't be a problem, just we won't be using the full potential of the radios.
