Frequently Asked Questions...

FAQs for two-way radios in retail

Licenced or Licensed free in retail?

The main difference between a licence-free and a licenced radio is the requirement of an Ofcom licence to operate the device. The licence gives you a unique frequency to operate your radios legally and securely.

Licence-free radios are often cheaper to purchase than licenced radios as they come ready to use out of the box. However, as they are out-of-the-box ready, anyone can operate on the same frequency, which can mean anyone operating a licence-free radio, in range, on your channel will be able to listen to your conversations, and vice versa, meaning potential issue for the safety and protection of staff within your shop or premises.

Digital or Analogue

Traditionally, analogue radios have provided reliable communication between team members, but digital radio has far expanded the capabilities of two-way voice communications. Digital radios provide superior voice quality at the reach of coverage areas, double the capacity of an existing 12.5 kHz channel, and have up to 40% longer battery life on a single charge.
