How to Use Two-Way Radios
Step 1:
Decide on the distance you will need to use the two-way radios. This is a big factor when you buy two-way radios. Whether you need 10 miles, 20 miles, etc there are all sorts of two-way radios that will meet your need.
Step 2:
Buy the best two-way radios for your needs. Whether you want to be able to converse with your workers on a site or someone down the hall, this will be a deciding decision on which two-way radio you want to get.
Step 3:
Justify buying and using two-way radios. With the cell phone, most people will think that two way radios are ancient and not necessary. Take the following scenario into account. You have workers at a construction site and someone gets hurt and needs immediate attention. Using your cell phone, you have to dial the number and wait for the person to answer–precious time, when you have an emergency on your hands. With a two-way radio, you press a button, yell “SOS,” and should get an immediate response.
Step 4:
Use the two-way radios when taking a long distance trip. If you have multiple cars traveling a long distance, it makes communication much easier. Again, by the time you raise a person on their cell phone you could miss the spot where you wanted to pull over. Using the two way radio gives you immediate response to your needs.
Step 5:
Find your child. Ever have your child wonder off and become frantic because you can’t find them. If you have given them a two-way radio and taught them the way to use it you should never have to worry about this again. This is especially helpful in the woods or in locations where a cell phone will not work.
Step 6:
Compare two-way radios with cell phones. The problem with cell phones is they may need to be charged and you may not be able to get a signal at any particular time. Two way radios need batteries–which you can carry with you–and don’t rely on network signals to be used. Therefore, in an emergency two-way radios may be the better of the two options
