We went to our first event this weekend and had a great time, but found that communication was a big problem. We had a couple of cheap handheld radios but my son and his friend were carrying them. They had limited range and battery life, and of course once we got separated I was dependent on finding someone else with a radio to get information. As a result, I spent a lot of time not knowing what was going on, and where I would be most useful on the field.

I am looking for advice on what radios to look for. I don't want to spend crazy money but I would like to be able to monitor more than one channel at a time. Durability, range, and battery life are important.

Any suggestions?
