FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS!

Which 2-way radio is best?

The best 2-way radio will depend on your needs and budget. Some of the most popular manufacturers include Motorola Solutions, Kenwood, Icom, Hytera, Entel and TAIT.

What is the difference between Analogue and Digital 2-Way Radios?

Analogue radios operate in the ‘traditional’ analogue mode and are using frequency modulation to transmit the natural voice. The radio signal is stronger when the analogue radios are closer together. Digital radios operate in a digital mode which means they use a mathematic system represented by binary numbers 1 or 0 to transmit the voice, which becomes digital. The voice transmitted through digital radios is very clear and stays clear even at the end of their coverage area.

What is the advantage of 2-way radios vs mobile phones?

Instant communication! Without a doubt, 2-way radios are the most reliable and widely used team communications solution.

What is the difference between portable and mobile 2-way radio?

Portable 2-way radios are handheld radios that can be carried on a person; they are typically known by consumers as “walkie talkies”. Mobile 2-way radios on the other hand are larger and installed in places like vehicles and offices to communicate from a set location.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS!

What is a Base Station?

A base station is typically a fixed piece of radio equipment that has a radio and a power supply. This is usually controlled by an operator. Base stations typically have higher power than a portable and thus have greater range.

What is the Warranty period on your equipment you sell?

Warranty is the same that the manufacturer offers. Some offer one year warranty and some offer two years or even three. Our warranty to our customers reflects the same terms and conditions and time.

Frequently Asked Questions!

Do you help with programming radios and what frequencies to use?

Two-way radios must be programmed to the same frequency information for them to work with each other. We will help you sort through the programming options available, so you get a completely custom designed radio system for your organization. We keeps a record of what we put in your radios so you can easily add radios to your system later.

What is the difference between licensed and license-free radio?

License-free radios operate on the above-mentioned PMR446 MHz frequencies. They typically arrive ready to use straight out of the box with no programming required. These devices work well in small areas. Licensed two-way radios are devices that do need to be pre-programmed before use to a specific frequency range. The frequency range you have them programmed to is provided to you by MACRA in the form of a radio license. The license is a set of dedicated frequencies that only you can operate and communicate on, which makes it much safer and more secure to share information.
