does anyone use them:supp: I was thinking of getting a set so I can talk with my kids when out riding. Taking long trail rides it will help to know where they are and how they are doing. I stay right with them, sometimes the group might get stretched out, I want to make sure we stay on the same path.
I seen a set last year a family was using, worked out good to them. Push to talk was on the bars
Any Suggestion on what to buy?

My buddy set it up for his girls with the hand held two ways. He can talk to them on the track but they can't talk back. He installed an ear piece in the helmet and attached the two way to their chest protector.
It works very well.
There may be something esle but there big amd cluncky.

We do use them. The "ChatterBox" is an excellent set-up. These are voice activated and can use standard CB channels. That way the riders can communicate within the group as well as having a more powerful unit (with tall antenna) at camp. Our motorhome was equipped with the CB.
