Hello, local shop has offer the uv-18l for 25 euros ... shop advertise the freqs are 144-146 & 446-446.2 mhz (maybe locked for country use ? ) ... & they also state is walkie talkie ... but at official web site has different freqs 1) will this communicate as it is out of box with my old PMR Binatone from ex-Maplin 446 mhz with out unlocking it? other way is not worth to get it (unless i use/get 2 same units) 2) is still illegal in EU as stating GMRS or seems be just fixed for EU use?
In general anyone knows what is going on with this unit ? Thanks

No idea if it's locked or not, but I'd say it's worth the euros just to play with.
