We are a month into our 2-1/2 month Alaska trip. We are travelling with another couple who also have a 1993 Dodge W250. They have a 1984 FWC Keystone on their truck. He did not want to get a HAM license.
Prior to the trip I bought two Midland MXT400 GMRS radios. We both got FCC licences (fee only no test) and have been using the radios to conmmunicate truck to truck. The radios work great. Much easier to coordinate photo, fuel and restroom stops. The old FRS handhelds we tried previously during our 2018 Alaska trip just didn't have sufficient range. We have been able to easily comminicate when several miles apart.
For those of you who travel with others in separate vehicles I recommend these radios.
