2 Way Radios

Walkie Talkie

A walkie talkie is a handheld radio with a speaker and microphone that enables two people to communicate with each other in a situation where they cannot physically be together. These radios are also known as two-way radios. Business walkie-talkies generally have higher frequency levels and longer ranges than consumer models. These devices are generally more expensive than their consumer counterparts. In addition, a business radio typically has more features and is heavy-duty. However, a consumer radio is less expensive and has lower frequency levels. It is also battery-operated, and the batteries vary depending on the model. The basic components of a walkie-talkie are a triode amplifier, three "chokes" (frequency filters), and a capacitor. The US Patent 2,698,380 describes a high-frequenc...

Walkie Talkie

A walkie talkie is a wireless communication device used to stay in contact. Its benefits include allowing people within range to hear one another's voice. The radio signals they emit are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum and travel at the speed of light. A walkie talkie is ideal for a variety of outdoor activities where cell phone coverage is limited. They are also useful in remote areas, such as whitewater rafting, where cell phone reception is minimal. A walkie talkie has two functions: to send and receive messages. They are battery powered and work on specific radio frequencies. Radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and they travel at the speed of light, or 186,000 miles per second. When a walkie talkie is in receiving mode, it will emit a hissing noise or static. W...

Types of Two-Way Radios

Depending on the type of application, a two-way radio can have a variety of different types of frequencies. In the half-duplex mode, both parties can listen and talk at the same time. Many two-way radios are equipped with a Push-to-Talk button that transmits messages when pressed and receives messages when released. A full-duplex system utilizes different frequencies and frequency sharing methods to ensure that both parties can hear each other clearly. Another type of two-way radio is called a walkie-talkie. This device can be used by two people or a group of people. Both devices need to be in the same channel or frequency band. A walkie-talkie must be continuously on both transmit and receive. When transmitting, it is important to muffle the other device. To avoid causing interference, i...
