Overview
The Midland EX37VP E+Ready Emergency Two-Way Radio Kit is a ready-to-go communication kit built around a pair of Midland T31 X-Talker FRS handheld radios. Use it when cell service is down, on a camping trip, on a job site, or in the truck so two people can stay in touch without a license.
Each radio has 22 FRS channels, 38 privacy codes, channel scan, call alert, eVOX hands-free operation and a NOAA weather radio with weather alert. Midland rates the maximum range at up to 26 miles in open, unobstructed conditions. The kit also includes a 9-LED flashlight, a multipurpose whistle with compass, temperature gauge and magnifier, belt clips, rechargeable batteries, a micro USB Y-charging cable and a softshell carrying case.
Midland backs the radios with a 3-year limited warranty (accessories are covered for 90 days).

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an FCC license?
No. These are FRS handhelds, so you can use them without an FCC license. They can still talk to GMRS radios that are set to the same channel and privacy code.
What's the realistic range?
Midland rates the maximum range at up to 26 miles, and that figure is only for open water or wide-open rural terrain under ideal conditions, with fresh or fully charged batteries. In town, around buildings, or in hilly country, expect a much shorter range, often about 1–2 miles or less.
Are rechargeable batteries included?
Yes. The kit includes six 300 mAh NiMH AAA rechargeable batteries (three per radio) and a micro USB Y-cable so you can charge both radios at once. You can also run each radio on three AAA alkaline batteries, which are not included. Do not try to charge alkaline batteries in the radios.
Is this kit waterproof?
No. Midland rates the radios as water-resistant, not waterproof. The owner's manual says not to immerse them in water. If they get wet, dry them with a lint-free cloth.
Does the flashlight need a battery?
Yes. The 9-LED flashlight takes one AA battery, which is not included.
How long does a charge last?
Midland recommends charging the NiMH batteries for at least 12 hours with the radio turned off. An industrial catalog lists about 8 hours of battery life; leaving NOAA weather alert on can shorten that, based on user reports.
