Outdoor travel has become a more and more respected leisure method for contemporary people. When the mobile phone signal cannot be used in remote areas, the two way radio is the most reliable communication tool. The radio is not only not controlled by the base station, but can also search the frequencies of the nearest rescue team and government departments for help! Then, faced with the wide variety of two way radios on the market, how do we choose a two way radio that are more suitable for outdoor use?

1.Protection Grade

Because of the bad environment after the disaster, it is also easy to encounter bad weather such as rain and snow. Therefore, when choosing two way radios, our primary consideration is whether the two way radios' own protection ability meets the standard. For example, explosion-proof digital two way radios(EX DMR radio), which have IIB explosion-proof grade and and the whole machine has been monitored by the US military standard and meets the IP67 dustproof and waterproof standard. Even if it is accidentally dropped into water or gets wet in heavy rain, it can still communicate normally.

2. Working Frequency Band

Dual band amateur two way radios just cover the 150-170MHZ and 400-470MHZ frequency bands. If you are trapped in distress, the amateur two way radio with a wide working frequency can cooperate with the frequency scanning function to search for the signal of the nearby two way radio, and then insert the emergency call for help. The two way radio with a wide working frequency can also be easily used together with the two way radios of other departments, and even the frequency used by the professional rescue team can be quickly set and provided to the rescue team as material support.

3. Standby Time

If you stay outdoors for a long time, you will inevitably encounter the problem of power shortage. When the two way radio cannot be charged in time, we must first consider the two way radio with large battery capacity, long battery life and low power consumption.

4. Adjustable Power

To reduce the power consumption of the two way radio, you can also choose a two way radio with multiple levels of transmit power. Adjust the power according to different usage environments, which can reduce the power consumption as much as possible, allowing us to get more talk and standby time.
