No, not all Motorola walkie talkies can talk to each other. Motorola uses different radio frequencies and communication protocols for their walkie talkie models. Walkie talkies from the same series or using the same technology (like Talkabout series or FRS/GMRS) are usually compatible and can communicate with each other. However, it is best to check the specific model or series compatibility before attempting to use them together.

The Motorola Talkabout T800 operates on the Family Radio Service (FRS) and General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) frequencies. It covers a range of 462-467 MHz.
