We’ve used Midland Radio communication gear for a few years and they’ve been great products that have never let us down. This month Midland has released the all new MXT500 and we’re excited to Trail Test it over the coming months.

The MXT500 launches January 11th 2022

Farmers, agriculture workers, off-roaders and outdoor adventurers alike have needed for years to have radios that keep them connected and safe even within the depths of nature where cellular signals aren’t available and the average radio just can’t reach. To answer this demand, the new MXT500 is the most powerful GMRS Radio on the market, with 50-watts of broadcasting power to reach maximum ranges. With high powered communication capabilities and full repeater functionality, this new MicroMobile radio will keep you connected.
