Walkie-talkies can be very interesting for multiple industries and professions. A profession where walkie-talkies are often used is that of traffic controllers. Different types of walkie-talkies can be used for this. Are you curious how you as a traffic controller can use a walkie-talkie and which accessories are available? Then read this blog and find out!
Communicate at a short distance as a traffic controller?
Do you want to be able to communicate easily as a traffic controller at a short distance? Then license-free radios are suitable for this. The most interesting radio series for traffic controllers is the ProTalk series TK 3401 - TK3501 from Kenwood. The advantage of this is that these walkie-talkies are license-free. In addition, the walkie-talkies are available both analog and digital. With a view to the future, we recommend choosing digital walkie-talkies. Would you rather communicate at a greater distance? Then the Motorola DP1400 UHF is recommended. This walkie-talkie is cheap to buy and there are many different accessories available. It is also possible to program an emergency button in the walkie-talkie!
A handy shoulder microphone
Firecom offers all kinds of useful accessories for traffic controllers. Think of a handy shoulder microphone with which you, as a traffic controller, can easily communicate with your colleagues! The shoulder microphone is easy to attach and can be used from the shoulder. This makes communicating with walkie-talkies even easier!
UHF and VHF
When purchasing walkie-talkies, it is important to understand the difference between UHF and VHF. These are the frequencies at which two-way radios communicate with each other. In addition, a UHF radio cannot communicate with a VHF radio. UHF radios are ideal for traffic controllers who want to communicate at a short distance. When the distance is longer and a good range is essential, we recommend choosing VHF. The VHF signal waves can travel a much longer distance than that of UHF. This allows you to communicate qualitatively at longer distances.
