Wouldn't it be a good idea to have a set handy?

Prices are all over the place and the cheaper ones are sold as kid toys. How much should one spend for something with decent reliability and battery life and encrypted calls?

Any experiences with the Cobra brand sold at Walmart?

Lame.

Proper VHF radios would be more useful. Also, only faggots shop at walmart.

Oh. I guess yeah. Duh.

But there can be more than two participants making it more than just two-way communication. I have been meaning to get one of those because then the missus could still hail me on the boat even if the phone system goes down.
