2 Way Radios

Walkie Talkie – Communication For The 21st Century

Walkie talkies are hand-held, lightweight portable, hands-free radios that utilize radio waves for communication. Each battery powered handset has a radio transmitter (which in turns doubles as a receiver) an antenna for transmitting and receiving radio signals, a speaker which often also acts as a microphone, and another push-to-talk button which, surprisingly, you push in order to speak. It all sounds a bit complicated but really, the hands free world has arrived. Most walkie talkie products are rechargeable so you only need to take them out when you need to use them, and you can even use them on boats or in more rugged conditions. Because they are lightweight, hand held walkie talkie devices are easy to carry around and they're also perfect for use during camping or boating trips. One ...

How a 2-Way Radio Works

A two way radio is a hand held radio, which can both receive and transmit radio waves, unlike a purely broadcast receiver which just receives transmission. It's an audio transceiver, a transmitter plus receiver in a single unit, utilised for bidirectional, personal voice communication with others with similar units. These units can be used in cars, boats, computers and mobile phones to communicate between people. In general use, they are used by truck drivers or in military units for communication and other purposes. A typical 2-way radio may have up to 10 channels, whereas a Walkie Talkie has just two or three. The difference is clear when it comes to frequency usage. A mobile radio uses a single carrier frequency, whereas a base station uses a multiple carrier frequency (like the examp...

Using a Walkie Talkie

Using a Walkie TalkieA walkie talkie is an electronic two way radio transmitter that enables a user to communicate with another person (or several people) through a telephone line, either manually or automatically.

2-Way Radio Walkie Talkies

A two-way radio is basically a radio that can both receive and transmit radio waves, unlike an ordinary radio which only receives information. It is a wireless transceiver, transmitter and receiver in a single unit, used mainly for bidirectional human-to-human voice communication via other wireless users with similar systems. The use of these radios is on a need-to-know basis only, like when using cell phones or MP3 players. Also known as walkie-talkies, these devices are used primarily for communication purposes inside buildings and other enclosed areas. These radios are also used extensively in the construction business, for security reasons and for carrying out tasks such as surveying large area without the use of land lines or cell phones. The two-way radios are generally designed wit...

The Basics of Walkie Talkies

The Basics of Walkie TalkiesA walkie talkie is also known as a portable personal transceiver, a hand-held cell phone designed to work on a regular frequency between 3 Hz and 30 Hz. This spectrum of voices is particularly useful for brief communication exchanges between individuals who don't want to be disturbed by an answering machine or voice mail. It can also be used for personal purposes, such as in communication with a distant relative, or to make a phone call to someone important. Some walkie talkies are equipped with a microphone so that you can use the device for communication. The most popular walkie talkie models are those manufactured by the Radio Frequency Identification Corporation (RFID), which have the additional feature of having a battery that can be recharged. Modern walk...
