If it's bad all u will need is a walkera radio. I took out receiver and used my hitec aurora 9

...and you will want to, because the lithium batteries are usually defective, and will not take a full charge. When I called Midland about this, I was told they would simply replace the radio with a GXT1000, which uses the older NiMH technology. (I finally traded these for a pair of the LXT model.)

If your buying them from the same place I did they come with everything.I was surprised.I thought I would have to buy backup batteries and the locks.Everything is there that you need.The only thing that stumped us at first was where the cable tensioners went.These things are great,would'nt have anything else.Too bad I can,t send pictures.Good Luck!

When getting a new one, it should come with batteries, the boom mic in front and some cables, but if buying it use you will have to make sure the basic items are included and if lucky the seller adds some items they no longer need. Good luck

not sure about the best combo light/phone recharger/radio, I'm still in the market for one. I just put that one on here for reference. As far as MRE, I tried the ones the gave us after Hurricane Katrina and they werent to bad. They just came in a tan package. I cant remember the brand. I have a few wishlists going with what is gonna be in my kit, minus the firepower of course since they dont have that on here

I think all the batt. have numbers on them, if it is the same it will work. Or you could just call the fractory #.

Did you install a battery? Suggest you learn your computer's operating system. Read the book. Just plug it in and drag and drop tunes to it, thats all it took for me.Because so many have been returned that have absolutely nothing wrong with them I was able to buy four (4) "Refurbished" Shakers for my grandchildren, all of them together, for under $50.00 including shipping! Yes, grandchildren, Going on 70 I'm no techy myself but they were very user friendly to me and my grandchildren ages two to seven all picked them up and understood their operation in less than five minutes. Can't suggest a better option, especially for a seven year old, at under $15.00.Good luck. Did you install a battery? Suggest you learn your computer's operating system. Read the book.

It has everthing to start playing around with it, giving the batteries as the exception. But you may consider options such as an additional antenna (rubber ducky), the ac charge/adapter, the programming software and cable (makes it somewhat easier). There is also other advanced options such as a external home/car antena, cable, bnc adapter etc. All in all it is fun straight out of the box, slap some batteries and read read read the instructions and you will be glad you did. Consider also information via web and even Ham radio operators in your area. Have fun but don'get stupid chasing ambulances and stuff, you could end up in jail.

Hey what's goin in man! I got this car a few months back and it's a great starter car! Pretty fast! I would get some exta battery's! Just get the same one it comes with! If he seem to take an interest in it then you can spend some more cash to get some good ones! One thing you need to know when you first get the car the first time you charge the battery charge it for 8 hours straight even if the charger says it's done! If you don't the battery will only likes 5-8 mins good luck brother

You are most welcome! Return it and get another one with a manual. It really is a good piece. Does so much. And so inexpensive. Go for it! Not going to hurt Amazon!

I spoke with Remanufacturer in New York. They seemed like a top notch company. I called regarding returning the old core. When I told him what I paid he said that was less than dealer cost. I did not run into a warranty issue though.

oh do you mean but the batteries and charger separately and not the actual radios? not sure, usually companies like Cobra sell it as a bundle. or you could buy regular AAA rechargeable batteries and it's own charger and put them in when charged. like Santo Eneloops or Powerizer

Some claim it's a cell phone battery you can find for $5 (with shipping, I doubt it.) Apparently, many defective radios and/or battery units were shipped. Nothing should be shipped to a customer where the customer is left trying to figure out how to fix it. I just sent the whole thing back and ordered a portable radio made by a different manufacturer.

Did you buy the UV-5R radio. The reason I'm asking you is because those battery cases only fit in this model.I had to pull out the metal contact off the battery case in order to make it work. ;-(I never returned it because it was so cheap and it will cost me more if I ship it back. So I worked around to make it work.

I did check out PriceMad after I posted and there are way too many negative comments. I did buy the KDL 52W3000 from Amazon, thru their dealer, J&R-----.; I checked J&R; out and comments/reviews are great. I got it for $2199 with free s&H.; and it has been shipped, so they say.Whoopee!
