Uniden has released a range of new UHF radios – the UH600 series – to help adventurers stay in touch when camping, off-roading and hiking in remote areas outside the reach of the cellular network.
Australia is a large place to explore and there are numerous remote areas where mobile reception is non-existent.
The Uniden UH600 radios are built to handle rugged conditions with a lightweight, compact design that’s available in 1.5 Watt and 2-Watt versions for extended range.
The Uniden UH620 series have a communication range of more than 13km so users can stay connected even in the most out-of-the-way places.
Users can enjoy uninterrupted and clear transmissions over 80 UHF channels.
Each unit has a large channel display with a backlight and a rechargeable battery that offers up to 20 hours of talk time between charges.
Also onboard is a Shared Channel Quiet Filter to ensure the radio stays quiet when sharing a busy channel and only permitting transmissions from radios using the same code which makes it even easier for kids and families to use.
There’s also Auto Squelch which can block out unwanted background noise.
The radios also have carabiner and belt chips so they can be easily attached to clothing and backpacks.
