There are also CTCSS codes that you need to consider. If you radios don't have the same codes, they won't hear each other even if they are on the same frequency.

Longer range than FRS radio | Walkie Talkie Two-Way Radios .com
I am really disappointed with my combination FRS/GMRS two way radio.
The maker claims this handheld radio has a range of 25 miles, but I know I’ll be lucky to get three miles with this transceiver, because it only has a power of 5 watts. I reckon the manufacturers must ‘test’ these radios out in the desert someplace when they come up with these supposed ranges the walkie talkies are supposed to cover – but don’t.
Well that’s enough complaining. I’m sure you have heard it all before. So please tell me… who is willing to recommend a good FRS two way radio to me that has got a better range?
I want my signal to get out more than just a mile or two.
