The type of licence free 2-way radio you choose really depends on the nature of your activity. The decision to buy walkie talkies should certainly include a consideration of the benefits and quality of the product you choose and also the range of coverage you need.

Unlicenced 2-way radios have come a long way from their military and emergency services origins. A diverse range of businesses now include them as an invaluable part of their everyday operations from hotels to restaurants and garden centres the market is huge.
The reason unlicensed walkie talkies have seen a resurgence in popularity is a government initiative to open up a UHF radio frequency known as PMR446 available for personal use. This means that 2-way radios for use on this service are less expensive than conventional licenced walkie talkies.
The very cheapest are suitable only for basic leisure use and by this we mean basic. If you need a 2 way radio with sufficient coverage for climbing the cheaper radios are unlikely to be up to the job.
Whilst the better models are more expensive, they are at least reliable and far more durable making them ideal for professional business applications. License free walkie talkies can be used wherever people need to talk to each other though the radius is limited to a radius of about one mile, or possibly more depending on the terrain.
Better quality walkie talkies from Kenwood and Motorola for example are more than adequate for leisure usage or smaller factory sites. Motorola and Kenwood 2-way radios offer users a number of benefits. They are simple, cheap and reliable and once they are bought there are no further charges bolt-ons or any of the other costly considerations you have with mobile phones.
We offer a range of 2-way radios from Motorola, Kenwood, Icom, Entel and Vertex available to order from our website.
