Tripod,
Our hunting group uses Marine band radios as well for hound hunting. I know the FCC probably wouldn't like it too much that many people are using the marine radios on land use. But until we get fined we'll keep using them, not the best mindset, but thats the way we are gonna do it. The marine radios use VHF radio waves, 156 mhz and they get out better than an ordinary BD radio. Especaiily without all the noise and skip. Normal range for a mobile is 10-15 like Coydogn said, and the handhelds are about 5 miles. (5 watt handheld)
Well see ya later, MOyotehunter
