THE TWO WAY RADIO
THE TWO-WAY RADIO
We do not intend to delve deeply into the two-way Radio, only a bird eye view.We would want to accept the fact that it is one of the developmental stages of the mobile cell phone as we know it today especially in the form of the hand held Walkie Talkies.While a broadcast receiver (Receiver Radio) can only receive broadcast content only,the two-way Radio can receive and also transmit content.In other words it is a transceiver.
There are three forms of the two-way Radio.
(1) The" genetic" mobile two -way Radio which metamorphosiSed into the modern Mobile Cell phone.It has the ability to receive and transmit simultaneously.
(2)The stationary two-way Radio which is the basis of the modern Cellular BASE stations and the pivot on which the modern day phone system operate.It may be pertinent to let you know that Distance calling by mobile cell phones is only made possible by a network of cells. A cell is a BASE station (High rise Towers) with its coverage area.For a mobile phone A to call a distant phone B,phone A must first connect its nearest base station which in turn connect phone B through its nearest base station.This is why these phones are called CELL PHONES.Note that cell phones are also Two way Radios.
(3)The hand held portable two-way Radio more commonly called the Walkie Talkies or Handie Talkies.
TYPES OF TWO WAY RADIOS.
Different systems,technologies and types are available.However,they are of two major forms,the Family Radio Service-FRS and the General Mobile Radio Service GMRS models.
1.The Family Radio Service model FRS: This model which is characterizBed by a lower power of half watt can only support a maximum range of about 6miles in ideal conditions It is built to transmit on a total of 14 channels which include 7 FRS channels and 7 shared FRS/GMRS channels.
2.General Mobile Radio Service- GMRS: Characterized by a higher power, (usually between 1 anb 2 watts) this Radio is for outdoor use. The Radio has 22 channels and the signal can travel on either FRS or GMRS bands.However since consumers want more channels and prefer the 22 channel Radio to the 14 channels, most radios now have all 22 FRS and GMRS channels available in manufacturers' response to market demand.
CHOOSING A TWO WAY RADIO,WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW.
THE RANGE: ` The range of a two way Radio refers to the maximum distance between two Radios for effective communication.A two way Radio of 5miles rangecan only make effective communication if the distance between the two communicating Radios is less than 5miles.Therefore, the higher the range, the better the radio.Unfortunately however,the only way to know the range before buying as sellers are not likely to allow a physical test which might involve losenig the pack,is to rely on the specification on the packing label.One wonders if the manufacturers are out to play their customers in view of the fact that what is given is hardly correct.That such values are for ideal conditions may however be partially responsible.Achieving good line of sight free from obstructionable materials such as trees, wall, rock etc is desirable for effective reception. These are some of the necessary factors to achieve an ideal condition. All these can hardly be achieved in nature.The only option left to give us an idea of the Range is the ANTENNA.
THE ANTENNA: A good antenna will not only increase the range but also improve reception. Generally, the bigger the antenna the better it is.However,it most not be too bogus to cause discomfort in our pockets.
POWER: The higher the power, the higher the range.While a radio of half power could have a range of 6miles, that of between 1-2 power could have a range of say 25miles.
AVAILABLE FEATURES: There are varied features as much as we have different manufacturers and consumers. The fact is that if you want more features, then be ready to pay more.The following are some of the features common with modern two way Radios.
(1)Calling and paging features.
(2)keypad lock
(3)Headset jack for phones, etc.

What TV channel or radio station sometimes advertise jobs?
Few days ago I posted question if you ever heard companies advertise job openings in radio? Do you know if there is special TV channel in Canada that companies advertise jobs openings. I need this info for my research paper. Thanks.
Here in South Florida, Fox 29 WFLX has a runner on the morning news broadcast that advertises job listings. I don't know if there are any special TV channels in Canada. I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Lightning in a Bottle DVD $14.95 The Lightning in a Bottle DVD brings together the incredible talents of B.B. King, Buddy Guy and Ruth Brown, to name a few. During a night of a lifetime, the history of blues is highlighted as the eternal influence of these incredible talents come together at Radio City Music Hall. Embedded in time, the musical history DVD Lightning in a Bottle captures the magic by bringing together the group of modern and classic talents. Watch the Lightning in a Bottle DVD and experience a slice of musical history that was created on February 7th, 2003, when a dazzling array of blues artists gathered at New York City's Radio City Music Hall. With luminaries such as B.B. King, Solomon Burke, Ruth Brown, Mavis Staples, Buddy Guy, and Dr. John among the lineup, this was always destined to be a night to remember. The musical history DVD Lightning in a Bottle shows the savvy organizers upping the ante even further by integrating a comprehensive albeit by their own admission, incomplete history of the genre into the evening's festivities. Director Antoine Fuqua (King Arthur) was there with a full crew to record the event, capturing moments of magic both on stage and behind the scenes for Lightning in a Bottle. In the musical DVD Lightning in a Bottle, Fuqua also splices in some of the archival footage that the organizers showed on the night, including many of the Radio City artists performing and speaking at a much younger age. The influence of the blues over popular music is vast, and so performers such as Aerosmith, Chuck D from Public Enemy, and David Johansen are brought on stage to vie with their counterparts from a more traditional strain of the genre. During the Antoine Fuqua DVD Lightning in a Bottle, poignant moments come thick and fast, with many of the musicians reminiscing about the old times, and realizing that this would probably be the last occasion on which they were all gathered in the same room. An inspiring historical document, Fuqua's film captures a dying breed of artists, but also points to their lasting legacy and influence which will indefinitely loom large over the music scene. Buy the Lightning in a Bottle DVD, and feel the goose bumps as the musical greats of blues heat it up at New York City's Radio City Music Hall. |

Anatomy of a Bear Bite DVD $19.95 The Anatomy Of A Bear Bite DVD, was inspired by Timothy Treadwell, a photographer who spent several bear seasons as up close and personal to the creatures as possible. Hear experts discuss the behavioral science of bear attacks, recounts of actual bear attack survivors and the best way to survive a bear mauling. These bear attack DVDs are a gruesome, but necessary look at the instance of this often deadly occurrence. In the Anatomy Of A Bear Bite DVD, travel back to October 2003, when naturalist and photographer Timothy Treadwell was enjoying his last night of camping in bear territory. For 13 years, Treadwell had made it a point to get as close to the mammoth predators as possible. In these bear attack DVDs, see how on the last day of the season, his luck – and that of his girlfriend – ran out. When a wilderness pilot could not reach the couple by radio, he flew over the site and landed. Once he touched down, he was immediately confronted by a charging brown bear. The pilot escaped in these bear attack videos, but the grisly remains that awaited investigators proved that Treadwell and his girlfriend had not. The Anatomy Of A Bear Bite DVD will, for the first time, illustrate the real-life science behind bear attacks and learn what happens when razor-tipped claws and 4 teeth meet human flesh. Hear a first-hand account from Ken Norton – who survived his own near fatal attack – and learn from bear behavioral scientists exactly what sets these massive creatures off. Then, in bear attack DVDs, watch as engineers construct an animatronic test subject – "RoboBear" – and dissect a typical bear attack tooth-by-tooth, claw-by-claw and reveal the best way to survive a bear mauling. Shop for an Anatomy Of A Bear Bite DVD, as experts discuss the real-life science behind bear attacks, which was inspired by the true story of a photographer, who spent bear season as close to the creatures as possible and ultimately died because of it. Discover the real-life science behind bear attacks and learn what happens when razor-tipped claws and four-inch teeth meet human flesh. 50 minutes. |
