Lack of proper communication on the trail can lead to disaster. If you’re gearing up for an off-road adventure, one of the key components you’ll need to pack is a radio. Staying in constant contact with others on the trail prevents you from getting lost, allows for easier spotting over obstacles, and provides a level of safety should anything go wrong on the trail.

But with so many options out there for radios, how do you know which is best for you and your rig? On this episode, Matt explains the differences between handheld and mobile radio stations, and gives you the pros and cons of CB radios, FRS radios, GMRS radios, HAM radios, and Race radios.

We hope this video gives you the information you need to make the best choice when it comes time to adding a radio to your 4x4 or off-road vehicle.
