you can get a GMRS up to 4 or 5W relatively inexpensively (between $50 and 100? for a pair). Maybe 10 mi unobstructed line of sight if you're lucky? Of course, you need a license to use those, but they are sold over the counter...

Do I really have to get a license or do I just *technically* need one?

The reason I say semi-built in is because you can take them out an put in AA batteries if you are not near a charger.
Both are headset compatible.
It may be my opinion, but the T5720 seem to have a longer range than the T5100.

Are those GMRS or FRS? I do like the abiliy to swap in AAs if I need to.
