Default WALKIE TALKIEs

right bought some a few years ago up to 2mile range, they were £20 in a sale from maplin, mainly got them for the skiing holidays ( you know abusing the forigners )

anyways i see these days you can get 10mile range ones from ebay america http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MIDLAND-LXT310...QQcmdZViewItem

basically £30ish all in, i guess these are illegal in the UK / europe but couldnt give a toss about that!

want to know if they are anygood, as in a really good range? anyone got some 10mile ones?
