[GMRS-V2]
The GMRS-V2 has received a major chipset revision from our previous groundbreaking GMRS-V1. The GMRS-V2 has 200 completely programmable channels that you can arrange, modify, and use as: GMRS, NOAA, or Scanner channels. You can quickly add or remove multiple GMRS channels to any location, using our quick and easy on-board menus.
The GMRS-V2 has the maximum allowed power output of 5W. The GMRS-V2 uses a standard SMA female antenna, allowing for use with vehicle antennas such as the Nagoya UT-72G for GMRS use.
The GMRS-V2 has one built-in receiver that can simultaneously monitor two channels (semi duplex). The radio chassis has two push-to-talk buttons, the upper PTT transmits on the upper display; while the lower PTT transmits to the lower display.
Want to keep it simple? The GMRS-V2 also offers synced display and single PTT modes to simply monitor a single channel as well.

Long Range GMRS RadioThe GMRS-V2 transmits at the maximum allowed power of 5W for GMRS use. In ideal situations (unobstructed use), it can transmit up 36 miles handheld to handheld, or up to 100 miles with a GMRS repeater. |
BTECH BL-8 USB-C ChargingThe BL-8 battery now includes USB-C charging, providing users with greater flexibility and convenience in powering their devices. With this feature, you can charge the battery directly using a USB-C cable, or you can still use the CH-8 desktop charger if you prefer. The USB-C charging feature makes it easy to charge your BL-8 battery on the go, using a power bank or a laptop with a USB-C port. This means you no longer have to rely on the CH-8 desktop charger, which may not always be available or convenient to use. |
Kenwood K1 Accessory CompatibilityThe GMRS-V2 uses the Kenwood K1 accessory jack, making it compatible with a large amount of speaker mics and accessories. The K1 accessory jack is the most common accessory jack in the radio market. Pair the GMRS-V2 with the QHM22D speaker mic to allow full dual PTT compatibility. |
