Voice activated walkie talkies? About $40 a pair on eBay. -- Dennis C.

Everyone it seems looks to cellphones first, but there is no way they can talk to each other without a tower. They could make it possible with blue-tooth but they don't. Ought to be a way to get blu-tooth based headphones to communicate with each other too but that is not supported either. Then I looked for FRS radios built into headphones, and back to stupid high prices. I'll bet we could have purchased something off the shelf at Radio Shack 30 or 40 years ago that would have worked just fine. Enough of the rant. The only thing I have found short of manufacturing something would be a FRS walkie-talkie with VOX and a compatible headset.

Our anchoring (and our marriage) has benefitted from Cruising Solutions two-way headsets for 6 or 7 years. The modest ~$80/pair units were great ... but are getting wonky, and I'm looking at replacements. Everything on the market looks more sophisticated, and a LOT more expensive, at ~ $350 to ~$800 per pair. Anyone have a modest-priced solution?
