On Buytwowayradios.com Motorola's 2007 GMRS / FRS line are released to the public and are in stock. The new models are the T9550XLR, T9500XLR, T8550R, T8500R, FV750R, and FV700R.

This series includes 3 camo colored models, the T9550XLR, T8550R, and FV750R. The 9550 and 8550 camo models also include a pair of push-to-talk earbuds (model 53727). These earbud packs are a nice addition, and gives Motorola a package similar to the GXT600VP4 and GXT650VP4 value pack offerings from Midland.

The feature set is very similar between all of these new models, with the primary difference being the power / range of the radios. The 9500 and 9550 have an antenna that is about 1 1/2 inches longer than current models, giving them a 25 mile range in ideal conditions (typically 2 miles in urban conditions). The 8500 and 8550's advertise an 18 mile range (1.8 in urban conditions), and the FV700R and FV750R's advertise a 12 mile range (1 mile in urban conditions). Motorola has not yet provided us with the actual wattage of the radios.

All of these models include rechargeable batteries and a dual pocket charger, and they all support 11 NOAA weather channels. The 9000 and 8000 series' have the VibraCall vibrate alert.

These new models should be going fast.

We are excited to be participating in a new promotion that is being offered by Motorola on certain Motorola business two way radios! For every 5 XTN or CLS series radios that you buy, you qualify for your choice of either a) one free radio or b) one 6 unit charger. This promotion is valid on every 5 radios purchased, up to a maximum of 40 radios. That means you can qualify for up to 8 free radios or multi-chargers!

If you choose the free radio, the radio radio model that you will receive for free will match the model of radios that you purchased. This is a value of up to $205 when you purchased the Motorola XU2600 radio! If you choose the free charger, you will receive the model 53879 charger ($175 value) if you purchased XTN series radios and the 56531 charger ($139 value) if you purchased CLS series radios. You can view these chargers on our XTN series accessories and CLS series accessories pages.

This is a mail-in promotion being fulfilled by Motorola, not Buy Two Way Radios. After you receive your radios, you will need to claim your free radio/charger by visiting www.motosavings.com and filling out their online form. They will require that you mail them the UPC/serial number sticker from the radio boxes along with a copy of your receipt (which will be included in your package). Your free radio/charger is typically delivered within 4 to 6 weeks.

This offer expires June 30, 2007. Click here for full details.

Ever heard of laser? I'm sure you have, but how much do you REALLY know about it? Did you know that if you are buying a radar detector just because it says it has "360 degree protection against all types of laser" that chances are, it's not going to be effective?

First of all, we hope all of you enjoyed your holiday season! All of us here at Cricket Ventures sure did! We had an overwhelming amount of interest in radar detectors and two way radios over the holidays.

It has been a while since we have had a chance to update our news section, and because of that we have lots of new products to list! BuyRadarDetectors.com has just added a brand new section for laser defense to the website. We have a whole line of laser jammers to choose from from all of the major brands such as Bel, Escort and Blinder!

Buy Radar Detectors isn't the only site that has been updated with new products... Buy Two Way Radios has also been loaded with new radio models for 2005-2006. All of our Midland and Cobra radios are brand new 2006 models, and lots of our Motorola's are 2006 models as well. Our radios are perfect for skiing, hunting and vacations, and with the new 2006 models you are going to get more output power and range than ever before!
