RE: PMR446 v Walkie Talkies
BTW you mentioned that you currently use CB.

BF888 /UV5r type radios if used for vehicle to vehicle coms with external antennas have pretty much identical range as conventional CBs.

My ones have battery eliminators which power the units directly from the car's 12v system. I also use a speaker mike.

The downside compared to CB is that the display screen is too small to read clearly when driving, and there is no possibility for changing channel from the hand mike.

For me, having a single unit that I can use in car and also on foot is most useful.
