Walkie Talkies for Camping

Walkie-talkies for camping and hiking let you share your outdoor experiences with your friends and family as they happen. If you've gone ahead of the group to scout out possible campsites or the kids' energy simply can't be contained now that they're on vacation, two-way radios will keep you connected. More than just connected, handheld portable radios can help keep you safe now that you're out of cell phone range.

Motorola makes some of the finest two-way radios for camping you can find. They're built tough, but made simple, so anyone young or old can pick one up and simply push-to-talk. At techwholesale.com you'll find a wide selection of camping walkie-talkies, with a 2-way radio model to fit every set of needs and budget.

If you're just out camping for fun with a group of friends, the scouts or just your family, you should consider Motorola's Talkabout walkie-talkies. Motorola Talkabout radios feature a backlit display that's easy to use and ship with a battery that lasts as long as 8-10 hours or up to 27 hours with AA batteries, depending on the two-way radio model you purchase. You can't go wrong with their 2-mile range (some sites give figures like 23 or 27 miles, but those are under the most optimal of testing conditions and don't reflect likely use cases).

If you want to stay abreast of weather conditions to make sure your camping expedition will remain safe or dry, Motorola Talkabout handheld radios have got you covered there too. Each Motorola Talkabout radio we offer provides up-to-the-minute information on local weather conditions via 11 weather related radio channels. 7 of those channels come straight from the US government's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. A large part of NOAA's mission is to help keep outdoor enthusiasts safe by disseminating information on approaching storm conditions by land and at sea. If you love camping, but don't like to sleep in wet sleeping bags, you can find out in advance if you should attach your rain fly before heading out for your afternoon hike.

Motorola Talkabout walkie-talkies for camping come preprogrammed with 22 channels to keep you connected at or away from base camp. Add in 121 interference elimination codes and you've got 2,662 possible combinations for chatterfree 2-way radio communication. Motorola Talkabout radios operate on both the Family Radio Service and General Mobile Radio Service two-way radio frequency bands: FRS/GMRS. The FCC does not require an operator's license for FRS, but you will need to get a two-way radio license if you plan to use the GMRS band. The good news is it's pretty simple. Submit the paperwork along with the fee and the FCC considers you and the members of your immediate family as licensed GMRS two-way radio operators!

If you're looking for a heavier duty camping walkie-talkie that's common in marine communications or made to handle the hardcore demands of business radio use, you'll want to look at Motorola's VHF band two-way radios. The Motorola RDV2020, for instance, works on 2-watts of power rather than the Motorola' Talkabout's .5 watts. (.5 is the maximum power output allowed for a FRS/GMRS two-way radio as mandated by FCC laws). The RDV2020 easily transmits across 220,000 sq. ft and likely a few miles across flat terrain such as water. It's for that reason that VHF walkie-talkies are the mainstay of two-way radio communications for ships, boats and the coast guard.

Motorola's RDV2020, along with all of the RDX series radios, is made to military specifications 810 c, d, e, f and IP rated to 54/55. It's not a toy. It can handle the heavy duty demands of long camping trips and business use alike. Should you encounter moisture, salt, fog, dust, shock or vibration or high-powered jets of water in any of your camping or business activities, your radio is made to take it.

In addition to a wide selection of two-way radios for camping and hiking, you may want to check out some of our great walkie-talkie accessories such as clip-on mics and earpieces, so you can talk on your RDV2020 handsfree using it's VOX capability. VOX works with accessories on Motorola Talkabout radios also, if you prefer.

However, accessories aren't necessary when you're using the Motorola Talkabout's handsfree iVOX feature that doesn't require two-way radio accessories! No matter how you like to wear and work with your camping walkie-talkies, you'll find what you need at Techwholesale.com!
