I'd check out Motorola's DTR series - no license required, although
they're a little pricey. We use them here for our Emergency Response
Team, they work well enough.

Quoting David Lang <[email protected]>:
from a practical point of view, FRS/GSM radios are used by a lot of
people, but legally those services are not legal for you to use for
any business purpose.
Business band radios are significantly more expensive and require
licensing (or renting from a company that deals with the licensing)
radios can be cheap, it's the licensing that gets expensive. You can
spend a lot of money on radios, but unless you have very special
needs you shouldn't need to go there. Even business band radios can
be <$40 each for ones that will do what you are needing.
I would actually suggest that if you have a wifi network, IP phones
(either hardware phones or software phones running on your
smartphone) would be a better thing to look into.
The only problem is that those will not work if your network is
broken enough or power outages take you down.

It's me and another guy running around on two floors.
I'd be grateful to hear about convenient features, what to avoid, etc.
