Recommend a two-way radio set

[chua_riwap]

I bought mine in the US, years ago. Sa Radioshack, ang dami brands, at mas mura nga. 2 prs pa nga binili ko.

Did a crash course on radio stuff last night...so bale only 325Mhz SRRS radios are permitted for non-licensed people, via the one-time license fee?
The only SRRS radio i could find locally is the one sold by 5Th Ave. Electronics, yung Smart Ranger kuno.

Is it correct that UHF is better for places with obstructions, compared to VHF?

Meron kayang UHF/VHF handset na one-time fee lang din? Not really looking into HAM radio, just need something that the family can use pag me lakad, that sort of stuff ^_^

They also have a Cobra SRRS radio listed in OLX. Just search for "SRRS".

AFAIK, outside the SRRS band, frequencies allocated for 2-way comms requires a commercial NTC license (ie. fleet, building security, etc.), where repeaters may also be allowed to be used to increase radio coverage.

SRRS is technically the only band allocated for family/personal use here. Around 15-20 years ago, we used to own a pair of Motorola Pacer SRRS radios.

UHF is typically better suited for use indoors.

Kanino kayang standards itong sinunod nila? Normally,- pareho tayo ng US e. Pero, the circular was 1998.

Kanino kaya "naibenta" ang FRS/GMRS band?... Malaking pera iyan kasi....

Kailangang mag-brushup ako ng NTC rules.... Thanks bro.oj88 for the rectification........ DU1-IJA.....

Found it

Seems only PH is using the SRRS band? So SRRS radios are basically useless abroad?

[CVT]

^ They are usable, since all of them are operating on the same frequencies....

However, the question is,- if they are "legal" over there?

mas mahal pa yung fees kesa sa radio hahaha!

meron naka-advertised sa 0lx, 2.4k yung 16 miles and 3.8k yung 26 miles. since pair yan, or 2 units, e di x2 din ang fees?!! haaay! gobyerno talaga natin walang alam kundi manggatas!

pupusta ako pag dating mo sa ntc kelangan mo i-xerox kung ano man yung papel na hihingin nila. at op kors sa xerox machine lang ni boss ang acceptable!

Is SRRS something that's unique to PH? Didn't find too many SRRS radios on the 'net.

So, if you wanna follow NTC rules, other than SRRS, need ko talaga magpa certify/get a license? i don't like exams ^_^

Yung ginagamit sa S&R, bodega, etc., those are etiher FRS/GMRS or SRRS?

Are there any SRRS radios that take in AA/AAA batteries? i think the Cobra units do, but i'm told the range sucks, and is strictly line-of-sight

Sorry po sa kakulitan, am just a little curious about this

[yebo]

uniden uses AAA batteries.

meron din sa cdr king frs radios using AAA batteries
