Amazon.com Review
Kenwood's UBZ-LH14 FreeTalk radio is a sleek little Family Radio Service unit that can handle all 14 FRS channels along with 38 subcodes per channel, making it ideal for crowded environments. It offers plenty of features and great expandability.
The radio isn't the smallest we've seen, and its three AA batteries add to the weight, but we're certain most users will be able to overlook these minor drawbacks once they start tapping the FreeTalk's abilities. For example, a scanning function automatically finds free channels, eliminating the typical trial-and-error process. And although the FreeTalk doesn't have many buttons cluttering its face, there are many advanced options that can be configured through a hidden menu.
The FreeTalk's many features are spelled out in the well-written manual, and we needed only a few minutes to set up the radio once we learned what the cryptic menu entries stood for. The menu let us change call tones, enable the automatic power off feature, and eliminate the beeps that sounded every time a key was pressed. The FreeTalk can even tell if a member of your party has wandered out of range, a feature we typically don't see on FRS devices in this price range.
Portability is enhanced by a swing-down antenna that stows behind the unit, a testament to the unit's carefully considered physical design. The rubber-coated push-to-talk button is easy to press, yet difficult to press accidentally. The microphone and external speaker jacks are covered by separate rubber plugs that keep them nice and clean when the peripherals are not attached. Kenwood even threw in a belt clip.
We were happy to learn that FreeTalk performed as well as it looked, with a range comparable to all the other FRS radios we've tested and with excellent transmission quality. The sound sometimes crackled a bit at maximum volume, but we rarely had to turn our radio up that loud. Overall, this is an excellent unit, boasting several useful features that actually justify the price. --T. Byrl Baker
Pros:
- Many advanced features, including call tones and out-of-range alerts
- Swing-down antenna makes the device easier to carry
- Excellent documentation
Cons:
- Establishing settings is nearly impossible without consulting the manual
- Sound quality suffers slightly at high volume levels

Still a Kenwood radio fan after 30 years.......2005-08-04
I used this radio with HMC3 headset at a recent Adams Co. Irish Festival. (I was in charge of parking among other duties.) It worked perfectly. I chose Kenwood based on my experience with their Amateur ("Ham") Radio products over the past 30 years.
Solid Radio for most needs.......2004-01-03
This is a good radio, as I have used it for the past year. Solid range, though it won't do two miles unless it is line of sight. I like the privacy settings. I was in Hawaii...and this radio is water resistant and was able to survive getting dunked a few times. Gaskets on the batter compartment, etc. Not too many frills, but works well.
Better than expected - Kenwood comes through.......2003-09-11
I was looking for a versatile, durable, and dependable FRS radio for when I go camping or fishing and this is it. The sound is very clear and there are many built-it options that can be changed by the user. Most of these options are for if you have two or more of these units - which would be the ideal case. But if you want just one great FRS radio, make it this one. I bought mine through DealCat.com and was very satisfied.
Kenwood FRS.......2003-04-20
We use 10 of these units for communications for swim meets between the starter, judges, bull pen and computer operations. We are very pleased with the performance and also like the "scramble" feature since we are using in a foreign country.
One of the best radios out there.......2002-01-01
I bought about 7 different models of FRS radios. This particular Kenwood model is about the best you can get. It has good range, excellent voice clarity, good ease of use, good battery life.
That said, NONE of the consumer FRS radios has really loud sound. So, if you're at a noisy event (sports, etc.) you'll have a tough time communicating.

Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy the space-saving convenience and rich picture quality of Toshiba's compact, 14-inch SD-P4000 LCD television and DVD player combination. The set features a perfectly flat liquid-crystal display with 640 x 480 native pixel resolution and a built-in, slot-loading, progressive-scan DVD drive capable of playing not just movies but homemade DVD-R, VCD, and recordable CDs loaded with MP3 and WMA music files and JPEG images (digital photos).
This is an EDTV set, which means it's a step closer to high-definition or HDTV than standard TVs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.
LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life (with no risk of image burn-in), space savings, and light weight/easy positioning. They also tend to be cheaper and, to some eyes, slightly more natural looking than their plasma flat-panel counterparts.
The SD-P4000's 3-line comb filter enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).
The SD-P4000 also includes Toshiba's Digital Cinema Progressive feature, which performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.
A component-video input grants optimum connection with digital satellite receivers and many digital video recorders, while standard composite- and S-video inputs accommodate most other video gear (including camcorders). A coaxial RF video/antenna input also accepts feeds from older VCRs and cable boxes, while a headphone jack permits private or late-night listening.
The set also offers closed-caption display, V-Chip parental control, a sleep timer, and a remote control that operates both the TV and the DVD player.

Not Pleased.......2004-12-01
Purhcased this 29-Nov-2004. Retruned it 30-Nov-2004. Text was fuzzy , Pixelation issues. Bought it as an open item got a great deal. Even the DVD's did not seem that clear. Might have been a defective unit - but completley unacceptable for my set up (Satellite receiver with Monster S-Video high end cable).
Purhcased a SHARP LC-20B6U-S instead. While the SHARP was twice the price it is 100 times better.
