Analog vs Digital Two-Way Radios Analog two-way radios have been the standard for decades. The analog Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR) standard, created by the FCC in the late 1970s, allows two-way communications in certain frequency bands for business and commercial systems. Analog radios have reached the peak of their advancement. They are simple to use and are often all that is needed on a personal level. When an individual or company needs a more advanced radio that is capable of messaging, location services and more, they look to digital radios.  Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) is an open digital mobile radio standard defined by ETSI (The European Telecommunications Standards Institute), and it is applicable all over the world. Commercial products must comply to it, and users are not locked into proprietary solutions. The DMR standard Consists of DMR Tier I, Tier II and Tier III.  Each tier provides different functionality and coverage range. How Digital DMR Works Both analog and digital radios send signals over a radio channel using a Very High Frequency (VHF) or Ultra High Frequency (UHF) carrier frequency wave. In simple terms, analog radios use frequency modulation (FM) to encode a voice signal within a carrier wave. Your voice changes, or modulates, the frequency of the wave. The difference between the modulated frequency and the baseline channel frequency can then be demodulated by the receiving radio and turned back into a comprehensible voice message. Digital radios do the same thing, but they have an extra encoding step before the voice signal reaches the carrier wave. The voice message is encoded into binary packets (ones and zeroes). These packets of numbers are then able to modulate the frequency of the carrier wave. The modulated frequency of a digital signal is not a continuous wave but instead an intermittent stepped change. Learn more about the different DMR Tiers Digital radios provide several advantages and additional benefits compared to analog radios: Increased Channel Capacity DMR uses the two-slot TDMA in a 12.5 kHz channel – this means that, as opposed to analog communication, you have two slots for communication instead of one. This time is essentially split up in milliseconds so that users don’t notice the time gaps, allowing a doubling of capacity for two channels instead of one.   Analog radios support up to 16 channels, and some analog radios have continuously rotating channel selector switches that can support up to 128 channels.  DMR radios with advanced trunking technology can support hundreds of channels.  Digital Push-to-Talk over Cellular radios have unlimited channel capacity.  Longer Range A standard analog radio is going to decrease in signal the closer you get towards its maximum range, at which point, all you hear is white noise. On the other hand, a digital radio is going to remain much more consistent in sound quality regardless of distance to or ...

Walkie-talkie frequency hopping is an advanced radio communication technology where the transmitter and receiver rapidly switch between multiple frequencies during a conversation, following a predefined, synchronized pattern.   How It Works: Synchronized Sequence: l  Both walkie-talkies share an identical hopping sequence (a list of frequencies in a specific order). l  They synchronize timing (e.g., via a digital signal or preset channel) to switch frequencies simultaneously. Rapid Switching: l  Frequencies change multiple times per second (e.g., 50–1,000 hops/second). l  Each frequency transmits only a tiny fragment of audio/data before jumping. Data Transmission: l  Voice/data is split into packets. l  Each packet is sent on a different frequency in the sequence. Benefit  Explanation Benefit Explanation Anti-Interference If one frequency is blocked by noise (e.g., machinery or other radios), only a micro-second of audio is lost. The next hop avoids the issue. Anti-Eavesdropping Eavesdroppers hear only fragmented noise unless they know the exact sequence and timing. Spectrum Efficiency Multiple groups can share the same broad frequency band without colliding (if their hop sequences differ). Signal Stability Reduces "dead spots" caused by radio reflections (multipath fading) in urban/indoor areas.   Real-World Examples Construction Sites: Dozens of teams use walkie-talkies without cross-talk, even in steel-rich environments. Event Security: Reliable comms in crowded areas (e.g., concerts) despite Wi-Fi/cell interference. Military/Police: Secures sensitive communications from jamming or interception.

Frequency meter can test frequency, subtone, frequency hopping, encrypted frequency point. The frequency meter can communicate with the walkie talkie by pressing the PTT button to detect the accuracy. The frequency meter can measure the frequency of the walkie talkie and is very useful.   Advantage 【Main usage】One key frequency measurement, reception, fast decoding, and automatic detection. 【Accuracy】After the frequency measurement is completed, the frequency counter and the walkie talkie can ensure that the frequency is accurate. 【Multi-Function】Frequency meter can test frequency, subtone, frequency hopping, encrypted frequency point. 【Use of PTT 】The frequency meter can communicate with the walkie talkie by pressing the PTT to detect the accuracy. 【Practical】 The frequency meter can measure the frequency of the walkie talkie and is very useful.   YANTON T-800, how to turn on the frequency measurement function? 1.Radio A under Channel 1, turn the radio off first, Press the Side key2+Turn on radio, Enter the “Frequency Measurement Function”, 2.Press and hold the PTT button of the radio B under test to transmit, and then approach the radio A 3.When the frequency measurement is completed, a successful frequency measurement will be reported and stored in the channel. 4. You can rotate the channel switch to change the  channels and enter the next frequency measurement. 5.After the frequency measurement is completed, you can turn off the radio first and then turn it on again.

Cross-band repeater working process. Ham radio VHF/UHF crossband repeater operation is a common use for amateur operators.and it is an effective way to extend the range of your handheld radio.  Normally Cross-band repeat function will be taken by dual-band/dual monitor mobile radio and a dual-band or UHF/VHF capable handheld radio. Cross-band repeat only works with a two simplex frequencies (one UHF & one VHF) or a UHF simplex and a VHF repeater pair frequency.  You will use the UHF channel on your handheld to communicate to the dual-band mobile. The cross band repeater capable radio then takes that signal and simultaneously transmits it on a VHF frequency (either VHF simplex or repeater). When the VHF station or repeater makes a transmission, the cross band repeater function radio receives and retransmits the signal on the UHF simplex frequency. This is the cross-band repeat process.    Another important point is The receive sides of both VHF and UHF on the cross-band should have CTCSS (PL) tone encode set to minimize the chance of false triggering by other signals.

  PMR446 is a range of frequencies that can be used for radio communications without the need for a license to use the equipment. Most radio frequencies require a licence to use them but, within the European Union, the PMR446 range can be used by anyone without the need for a license. PMR446 is license exempt, which means that any equipment made to operate on the 16 PMR frequencies (channels) can be used by anyone without the need to contact their local licensing authority.   What are the benefits of a licence-free PMR446 walkie talkie radios? 1.
