These general-purpose "business" walkie-talkies offer longer range and have higher power outputs than the PMR446 "licence-free" radios.


Amherst A66 Low-Cost Compact Business Radio Review

WALKIE TALKIE SUMMARY

The Amherst A66 is a compact and lightweight little radio, offering "licenced radio" performance at a price that is less than many lower-powered PMR446 radios.

PRICE RANGE

£39 + VAT each, with discounts for multiple purchases down to £25 + VAT each if you buy a lot of them together.

WHAT YOU GET

The A66 is sold singly, comes with a 1000mAh Lithium Ion rechargeable battery pack and a mains charger a bit like a phone charger.

PROS

The A66 is a remarkable radio for the low price. It looks and feels like a "proper" professional radio, being a simple, easy-to-use "black box" with an on/off/volume control and a channel selector knob.

It does offer some extra features, such as voice scrambling and VOX (Voice Activated Transmit) which are not often found on radios at this low price level.

CONS

The A66 has only 3 watts power output, so it is not the most powerful radio on the market. It doesn't have the usual "drop in" desk charger cradle, but for the exceptionally cheap sale price this is not a big worry.

VERDICT

The new A66 offers amazing value for money - we love it!
