Compare two-way radios

Every model we track, side by side. Filter by what you’ll use it for, then sort by power, range, water rating or price. UHF CB radios are 80-channel and licence-free; marine VHF has its own rules.

*Indicative. Range figures are typical line-of-sight estimates and vary hugely with terrain, antenna and conditions; prices are approximate and change often. Always confirm current specifications and pricing with the retailer. Ratings are our independent editorial assessment — no paid placements. The Baofeng UV-5R is included for context only: it is an amateur radio that requires a licence and is not approved for Australian UHF CB use.
