FAQ’s of Two-Way Radios

Digital or Analogue Radios

Traditionally, analogue radios have provided reliable communication between team members, but digital radio has far expanded the capabilities of two-way voice communications. Digital radios offer superior voice quality at the reaches of coverage areas, double the capacity of an existing 12.5 kHz channel and up to 40% longer battery life on a single charge.

Deciding which radios would be best for you is something we can recommend. Call Apex Radio Systems on 0191 228 0466 for guidance or read more HERE.

Licensed or License-Free

Licensed

A Radio Licence provides you with a unique frequency to operate your radios legally and securely. This licence is provided by Ofcom and starts at £75 for five years, although different types of licences are available.

Once you have an active Ofcom licence, your radios will be coded to that specific frequency allowing you to communicate with minimal or no interference from others in the area, depending on the licence type. Find out more HERE.

Licensed Free

Licence Free radios, also known as PMR radios, are perfect for communication over smaller areas. Personal Mobile Radios (PMR446) can provide up to 0.5 – 1 mile of coverage depending on the territory. Unlike Licenced Radios, these devices do not need any advanced programming – they are ready to be used straight from the box.
