My father might be the first man among his friends to use 2-way radios in south-eastern Europe. He grew up in the Balkan Pennsylvania and goes back every season to hunt with his childhood friends. At first, his friends would make fun of him to always come such equipped and tease him for sometimes buying unnecessary hunting equipment just to look ‘cool’ or ‘up-to-date’. My father has a calm nature in such situations and lets actions speak louder than words. He has proved the importance of, what apparently looked not so important, hunting accessories. The convenience and resistance of radios is incomparable to phones. You cannot have any information about the weather when you are miles away from home. Two way radios are best companions in those times. Since the first day, we now pack dozens of radios and special batteries for them every time we go back. They are an accessory we never go hunting without. Channel 5 in the radio always works best. As a child, I would often forget to turn it on (ops), which would make my dad not so happy. In such days, I would pray we didn’t go back home empty handed because otherwise I would have felt extremely guilty. We would be able to communicate easily over several miles. My father could hear a loud and clear voice telling the stories about my aching bones.
What Walkie Talkie Has Longest Range?
The standard coverage for a business walkie talkie working in an operation is 1-1.5 miles. It is difficult to answer how far a two way radio can go. Getting a distance range more than the standard is a bonus. MIDLAND LXT630VP3 is considered a true long range 2-way radio which is used in ideal circumstances. It has long range of 30 miles. Professional hunters usually use this device for communication with the base camp or companions. It also provides good quality of sound.
What is the difference between a walkie talkie and a 2 way radio?
There is not much difference between the two. In the United States, most people consider both of these terminologies interchangeable. A Walkie Talkie is a portable 2 way radio, which could be held in one’s hand. It is also called a handy transceiver.
On the other hand, a two way radio is a transceiver because it transmits and receives signals. 2-way radios even work in a half-duplex or a full duplex mode. The difference is that numerous two way radios are not handheld. So we can say that most of the two way radios are not always considered Walkie talkie, but all walkie talkies are always two ways radios.
Can 2-way radios be tracked?
Two-way radios are very difficult to be tracked because Police and Armed forces also used these devices for communication purposes. There is only one way to trace the two way radios, if they have GPS chip planted in it.
