How to use a Walkie Talkie?

The communication system through Walkie Talkies or radios has a wide range of advantages compared to other systems, such as mobile telephony:

• Greater security through fast and clear communication.
• More efficient operations.
• More time available for other users to communicate.

Despite this, many users obtain little or no training on how to correctly use this type of equipment and get lost among the multiple functionalities that they can offer.

So in this post we will try to explain in a clear and concise way how to use a Walkie Talkie.

What Walkie Talkie to Buy?

We help you make the best decision.

The Walkie Talkie is a communication device that uses radio waves to transmit voice. To communicate between two Walkie Talkies, it is only necessary to synchronize them on the "same wavelength" or, what is the same, to tune them on the same channel. If you work in a warehouse, in construction, in a restaurant, in a hotel, at events, in a studio, in shops, in the security area or do activities outside, don't hesitate any more, with walkie talkies for optimal communication between your coworkers!

For professional use

Walkie Talkies are essential in many industries such as construction, hospitality, event management and security, among others. You can be in constant communication and monitoring with other workers. Its use is easier than the mobile phone. Find the professional walkie talkie that suits your environment and professional needs.

For occasional use

We recommend using the walkie talkies for various activities such as hiking, sailing, skiing, hunting ... With the Walkies you will have a greater signal than with your mobile phone. For this reason, the use of the walkie talkie will give you greater security, which will be increased, with emergency switch buttons of certain models. 

What Walkies do I need for my company?

Many times, when we need to buy or renew equipment for our company, we run into the problem of not knowing what we want, or what we need, if we are spending too much on too "PRO" equipment or we are underestimating the needs of our work team.

In this dilemma, Walkies Talkies are no exception.

For the large percentage of companies that use Walkies (large clothing stores, bars and clubs, organization of events ...) the most indicated are the Walkies of Free Use. Unlike the Licensed Use ones (which we will see later), these Walkies have several channels and sub-channels (PRM 446 frequency) that we can use without paying any fee or fee. Just charge the battery and find a free channel to start using them.

The most popular models (among which is the Motorola TLKR T80) are quite cheap and very functional. They have silent mode, vibration, range of up to 10 km, resist splashing water, and some even come with an integrated LED flashlight.

Another category of Walkies are the aforementioned Licensed.  These are high-end Walkies, which work with VHF or UHF frequencies. To be able to use these, you must request a license from the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism, where they will give us a frequency that only we can use. This is the same communications system used by the police and the emergency services, and the one used for sport hunting (each Hunting Federation in each Community has its own authorized frequency). These are recommended equipment for companies that need high reliability and quality for their communications, since they will work on frequencies that no one can use, and will not have interference.
