They hacked a cheap push-to-talk microphone to make a bar mounted PTT button & had range for several miles w/ anyone tuned to the same channel.

Problem is, I don't think I wanna listen to that much chatter - it would really take some airwave discipline for that to not become a PITA!
Yeah I wanted to go this route in the beginning just because of the universal aspect of it. I could never find a quality system. A lot of people recommended the starcom setup, but I could never get it decent enough to use at any kind of speed.

If I had the cash to screw one of these up, I could probably jerry rig the mic from the Sena into a PTT type FRS setup and use the hardwire line audio line on the SENA to do something similar.
