Nicely structured review, H! The 950 you mention is the same as the Stabo 650 sold here. I agree that a fragile silver colour is not a good reason to increment the model number! :-) You make a good point about the frequency display. I'm a geek, so I like to know what the frequency is but at the end of the day I can only choose the channel and CTCSS and DCS codes, so why not make them easier to read?! The biggest problem I encountered with a (borrowed) Stabo 650 (like the Binatone 950 that's related to this 1100 model) was the extremely puny rechargeable batteries. These ones (AAA size) are linked in series for ~4.8V but at only 600mAH. I have experienced the handset shutting off while transmitting and coming back to life afterwards! Not user-friendly! This may be caused by the fact that the charger is not intelligent and can overcharge (and wear out) the rechargeable batteries. So that's why I chose reasonably priced Baofeng (1200 mAh?) or more expensive Alan model with 2200mAh rechargeable battery packs. Nice camera/editing work too. All the best, Rob.

Thanks Rob! Your encouraging comments are always a pleasure to read. I'm not keen on the batteries either so I use my own high capacity Duracell AAA rechargeable 1000mAh ones. The 600mAh capacity seems to be the 'industry standard' since most Cobra and Motorola models all use them as well.

You get ch 9 if you press up and down key while switching on me personally I still think the binatone action 1000 picks up weak signals better not much in it though but the favour is action 1000 .....have you tested you're Motorola xtn 446 yet I have got one also just intrested to see what kind of range you can achieve with one.....really enjoy all of you're informative video's keep it up thanks micky Newcastle upon tyne.....

I would have appreciated showing how to link one walkie talkie to another in a simple way, as I got them for 2 children to use, and their mothers.

Great review! The silver bezel trim is hideous and would look better left black. (It is easily scraped off with a flat blade) I fitted a set of the new Eneloop Pro AAA 's and ditched the generic 600mAh ones. The stared range of 10Km is achievable with these sets when at altitude.

Only thing I don't like is the curve at the bottom of the belt clip when its on you're belt it is so hard to get off so I shaved the curved end off now no problems the same on my binatone action 1000s great radios on receive the 1100 but I compared it to my action 1000s on receive and my 1000s were just a little bit better on receive but not by much ....
