This Expedition Radio Kit combines our powerful 5-watt GMRS radio with the versatile Waterproof Hand Mic—built for all-weather communication in the backcountry. The Expedition Radio is hand-tested to IP67 waterproofing standards (1 meter submersion) and designed with protective rubber padding and a shatterproof LED screen. A specialized 1800 mAh battery provides 4–6 days of use per charge, even in frigid conditions. With 5 watts of power—the maximum allowed for handheld GMRS radios—the radio delivers extended range up to 35+ miles (typically 2–8 miles in mountain terrain). The Waterproof Hand Mic makes communication faster and more convenient. Clip it to your pack strap for shoulder-level access to a built-in mic, speaker, and push-to-talk button. The hand mic is IP67 waterproof, glove-friendly, and designed to reduce wind noise while delivering loud, clear audio in challenging conditions. Hand Mic Features: Fully waterproof and snowproof (IP67, submersible up to 1 meter) Push-to-talk, volume, and dual channel (A/B) buttons Compact, glove-friendly design with loud, clear audio Rotating 360° clip for versatile attachment When connected, both the radio and mic can be submerged together The kit includes two antennas: a compact 7.5cm antenna installed, plus a 17cm antenna for moderately increased range and improved weather channel reception. Additional features include NOAA weather alerts, dual-channel monitoring, and 8 repeater channels for extended communication. Designed for skiing, paddling, climbing, hunting, overlanding, and more, the 5 Watt Kit keeps you connected in the harshest environments. Don’t have a GMRS license yet?
