you have long enough line of sight (e.g. a high hilltop) and nothing in
between you and the other station, you can get pretty far with those radios,
but those conditions rarely exist in practical situations, except in the case
of repeaters, which of course arent allowed with FRS in either Canada or the
US.</span></p>

<p>This is true they can not have a detachable antena. I have not found a
single good FRS radio! They have much less range then the makers says it will
reach. Min range of maybe 100 yards line of site with nothing between you and
the other person. </p>
<p>Get a Ham lic and enjoy real radio.</p>
