New mountable 2 Way radio Midland MXT100

A buddy of mine is in the market for a mountable 2 way radio for his RZR. We all use 2 ways on the trail and he is tired of fumbling with a handheld radio and headset. I went to doing research and found the recently released Midland MXT100. There’s a couple youtube vids out there. One of those is a rather dry but informative 17 minute video by buytwowayradios dot com.

On the Midland site, it’s being advertised as a RVing, ATV/UTV or general road tripping radio where there’s more than one vehicle involved. And if space is a concern, this radio isn’t much bigger then a deck of cards. Mounting options aren’t limited either. If you want to mount on the roof with the speaker facing down, the display will flip. It will also accept an external speaker, which is important to my buddy and probably a good idea with all the machine and trail noise when cruising.

It shows to be available at the midland factory outlet store but for some reason they are showing it as an MXT1000 instead of MXT100. They want 150 bucks for it.

Anyhow, I thought this would be useful for any other 2way radio users out there that also have a SxS. And FYI, the mic is hard mounted and not removable from the radio. My plan would have been to use our helmet setups with this radio hard mounted to our 4wheelers (tucked away in a box). I’m sure it could be done with some cutting of wires and soldering, though.
