    5 in 1 Headset = FRS and AM/FM radio & Bluetooth.

    April 4, 2009 — Mickel

    It’s an AM/FM radio, FRS radio, Bluetooth Headset and earprotection. This unit doesn’t seem to be just a toy, but can have some serious uses. There are two models BT-10K and BT-20K, not sure what the difference is, and no information on where to buy, or how much it might be.
