The Midland GXT1000 is a handheld two-way radio designed for communication in various outdoor activities and emergency situations. It belongs to Midland's lineup of GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) radios, which operate on specific frequencies designated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for personal and business use.

Here are some key features of the Midland GXT1000:
  1. Range: The GXT1000 offers a maximum range of up to 36 miles in optimal conditions. However, keep in mind that the actual range can vary depending on terrain, obstructions, and other environmental factors. This range is quoted by Midland, however PCI sees about 1-2 miles of range in standard conditions.
  2. Channels and Privacy Codes: It has 50 GMRS channels available, allowing you to communicate with other GXT1000 radios or compatible GMRS radios. Additionally, there are 142 privacy codes (38 CTCSS and 104 DCS) that help minimize interference from other users.
  3. NOAA Weather Radio: The GXT1000 includes a built-in NOAA Weather Radio receiver, allowing you to receive weather alerts and updates from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. This feature can be particularly useful for staying informed about severe weather conditions.
  4. Group Mode and Direct Call: The radio supports group mode, enabling you to communicate with other radios within a specific group. It also has a direct call feature, which allows you to contact a specific individual radio directly.
  5. SOS Siren and Emergency Features: In emergency situations, the GXT1000 provides an SOS siren that can alert others to your location. It also has an emergency alert function that broadcasts an alert signal to other radios, notifying them of your distress.
  6. Battery Life and Power Options: The radio is powered by a rechargeable battery pack, which is included with the device. It also supports AA alkaline batteries as an alternative power source. The battery life can vary depending on usage, but it typically provides several hours of continuous operation.
  7. Additional Features: The GXT1000 offers features like channel scan, monitor mode, keypad lock, silent operation, and dual watch. It also has a backlit LCD display for easy readability in different lighting conditions.

It's important to note that the use of GMRS radios requires an FCC license. The Midland GXT1000 is designed for both recreational and professional use, making it suitable for activities such as hiking, camping, hunting, and coordinating events.
Always consult the user manual and follow local regulations regarding the use of two-way radios in your area.
