My understanding is that these work with regular family radios like the Cobra micro talks. Mine are not, is there something I have to do?

We were not able to get them to work with another brand that our friends had. On a positive note, when we were in Belize we were on the same frequency as the Belizean police. They asked us to switch channels.

Not sure - they might be tied to different frequencies. I would research the product to see what it says about comparability.

I looked at the mu350r radios and it looks like they have a different connection than the motorola 53616 charger.I don't belive it would work.One has to look and see the connections of the radios and see if they match.

These only work with the Cisco/Polycom conferencing phone. They have a specific connector that only works with that phone model.

I had similar problems and even when "they worked" they were not reliable. They cut in and out all the time. I used them to talk to my wife on the bow of our boat when we are docking and she is throwing lines. I threw them out and bought a set of SPH10 from SENA. More expensive but completely blue tooth wireless, hands free and very reliable. You get what you pay for.

I don't know if they will interact. If they have the same frequencies they should. To be sure contact Dakota Alert Company. They are very helpful.

Think they would work. I used radios that aren't as good as these are when I was a stevedore working in Egypt, now with that said, this wasn't a pleasure cruse ship, so It didn't have all the bells and whistles like a cruse ship does that might interfere with the signal.

They are ok around the house or for about one block. There is a telescoping antenna that works better, or you can get an adapter at Radio Shack and use a high quality magnetic roof antenna on your car...But Cobra hand-helds don't put out more than 2 watts. I tested it on a 35 foot antenna and picked up someone at about 1 1/2 miles...That's about it. If you want some power get a Boefeng Ham radio (about $40) ar a Magnum 357 HP EXPORT RADIO, that has about 80 watts, and Ham and CB frequencies, and a Ham Operators License. But Boefeng doesn't pick up CB channels... A Uniden 520XL CB from Wall Mart works very well for $39 with a good magnetic roof antenna on your car...The Hand-Held CB's just don't have much power, nor the necessary antenna... All CB's are rated at 4 watts, so if you are looking at an expensive CB, forget it, You're not getting any more transmit power. Get a cheap Uniden 520 XL 4 watts, or get something with power like a Magnum 357HP (80 watts) and set it up for all channels with a good antenna...

I assume you mean handheld walkies, your walkie has to be designed to work on CB frequencies. The cheap handhelds found in most stores almost always work on FRS frequencies.

Not sure what plug in you have on the midland. You have to have a Hands free setting on radio for them to work also

Yes, they will work with rino radios as long as they are on the same channel.

I would stay away from them altogether. We bought a bunch, but some broke down very quickly. Some began to broadcast what people were saying without their knowledge. Not good. Contacted the seller, but could not get them to help me. We bought Baofeng but can't really say much about them yet.

I bought this earbud to use on my Motorola walki talki. It worked great, haven't had any problems with it. So I would assume that it would work, especially being that you have a cobra radio and its a cobra brand earbud.

Yes, however, with my setup, the audio alerts from Cobra do not come through (radar only). I get a screen popup, but no sound.

This mike will work on 4pin radios such as cobras,uniden and galaxy. If you have a six pin radio you will have to rewire it to work. You can get the pin wiring for your radio on the net.

Absolutely. My original pair-purchased 6 years ago-communicate perfectly with the two new sets I purchased recently. We have 10 members of our SAR team communicating (some with their own different brands of FRS radios), and we have no problem with communication. My six Cobras typically have greater distance reach, however, and are consistently more reliable in serving as relay or bridges between other radios when distance is an issue for them.

Mine did work, but I ordered the one for my Cobra. Should work on all Cobra brands.
