Wondering if anyone uses MURS radios? I've always used a CB for my Jeep when off-roading with Jeep clubs or groups. However, when I bought my Ford Raptor in 2014, all the Raptor folks used MURS business frequency radios. I quickly learned there are 5 license-free 2-watt business frequencies that allow for much greater distances and clearer communication. I ended up buying a $200 Motorola RMM2050 just to run with the Raptor folks a few times a year. Since we tended to go fast offroad, there were often 2 or 3 miles of distance between the lead Raptor and the sweeper on long trails. The MURS radios performed much better than CBs. I'll probably get a CB again for my Jeep just because I think it's more commonly used amongst Jeepers, but just curious whether MURS had caught on to the Jeep community in the past few years.
