I had Motorola P110's for race car and team radios that were great radios.  They worked great for other uses as well and were much better than those little Motorola Talkabout radios but they are bigger, heavier, and cost more.  They were UHF and operated in the 440-460 MHz frequency.  I think the new model is called a CP200 or something like that.

You are correct CP200's are the new Motorola but to operate that radio in other then FRS frequencies you would have to get a license for any other frequency you use legally.

Don't think "legally" you could use the cp200 on FRS as it's lowest setting is 1 watt and it has a removable antenna.
