What to Look for When Buying a 2-Way Radio
- Frequency Bands: Most radios are compatible with UHF (400-520MHz) or VHF (136-174MHz) for South African general communications. Always verify suitability for your application and ensure compliance with regulator guidelines.
- Power Output: Typical ranges are 0.5W-5W for handhelds, up to 50W for mobile/base units. More power means greater range but may require a licensed frequency.
- Battery Life: For field and event use, check battery milliamp-hour (mAh) ratings-2000mAh+ for full-shift coverage is typical.
- Durability & Build: IP-rated/casing models are available for demanding industry and outdoor work.
- Feature Set: Look for channel count, CTCSS/DCS privacy, scanning, and emergency alert features.
Essential Accessories
- Spare batteries and desk chargers
- Remote speaker mics and earpieces
- Belt clips, soft and hard carry cases
- Programming cables (for frequency/channel customisation)
