I need an Owners Manual for these 2-way FRS/GMRS, Wristwatch, Walkie-Talkie, radio's. The model # is... x32x-2. They have a Range of 1.5 miles supposedly. I received these Walkie-Talkies from Marlboro several years ago, when they were running Their Marlboro Miles Promotions... They have never been used, except to test them out when I first received them. They have remained in their box ever since. I have everything that came in the box, except for the Owners Manual. I have NO idea where that got to. My Grandson is 7 years old now and I want to give these to him. So, I would like to get my hands on the Owners manual Please Help! Thank you very much for ALL of your time, troubles, and efforts.

If you need one, you might have a look to some site where Motorola walkie talkies are being sold, like:.

You didn't include the model number of the radios, but I suspect you're referring to Family Radio Service (FRS) / General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) two way hand held radios. The FRS /GMRS types are limited to just 1/2 watt. Base GMRS type radios are limited to 5 watts. FRS is limited to Ch 1 - 14. Ch 15 - 22 are GMRS only, and require an FCC license to transmit. You can read more about FRS on Wikipedia.

Many FRS / GMRS two way radios claim incredible distances on the packaging. I've seen some that claim 15+ miles. Given the low power (.5 watt) that they are limited to transmitting, claims such as those would be under the most optimal of conditions. I can assure you that you or I would never encounter those conditions unless we were in some sort of radio laboratory / testing space designed to obtain these crazy distances. In other words, even in optimum "real world" conditions; these radio should only be expected to work when separated up to only several "unobstructed line of sight" miles (such as across open water of a lake, along a beach, etc. The range of these same radios will be reduced significantly when operated indoors, outside between buildings, where blocked by rocks, trees, metal, etc. The only reason you may have reduced range could be due to a power level selector switch that has been set to reduce the output power of the radio. Other than that, I think you'll find a couple of miles is about all you're gong to get.

Good luck!

Best regards.

You didn't mention a model number, so I don't know if your radio is an FRS or FRS/GMRS model. GMRS channels have more power output than FRS does, but GMRS also requires a license for operation. Other than that, the frequencies are so close together that there is no distance advantage gained by changing channels. The manufacturer's distance claims on these radios are pure advertising gimmicks - the radios are line-of-sight only, so if there's anything between the transmitter and receiver, the signal will not get through.
