Looking to buy some of these radios to make it easier to find each other and can talk also. Does anyone use them and if so do you like them or is there something better?

Thanks

Make sure you get the HCX version. My old 120 is poor and my 520hcx is way better!!! Not sure the 530hcx is needed, just find the best price.

Handy to see your buddies icon pop up when he does not arrive.

We have 4 530's we use for hunting and i love them. My mother gets lost all the time it allows me to find her when she doesn't know were she is. You can also scan radio channels to hear others talking and it will show there location. Good way to gather info on were the elk are or aren't sometimes. I have used them a few times for snowmobile rescues. Real nice to have to topo maps with all the roads, and the ability to talk to others.
