A two-way radio is basically a radio that is structured to transmit and receive. In general, most voice-wireless communications technology, counting cellular systems, are categorized by two-way radio definition. Usually, a two way radio refers to a radio system primarily utilized for group call communications. This two-way system is also called PAMR Public Access-Mobile Radio, PMR Private-Mobile Radio, LMR Land-Mobile Radio, and PMR Professional-Mobile Radio.

Portable 2 way radios are frequently called “walkie-talkies” or “handie-talkies.” Not much different from “handie,” the term sometimes used to describe mobile phones. While we’re on the subject, it’s probably best to get something out in the open right now. People often interchange the terms two-way radio and walkie-talkie.

However, walkie-talkie is chiefly a generic or slang-term for hand portable two way radios. Moreover, the term usually implies non-professional, license free, consumer type, or “toy” equipment. When referring to two-way radios, people are basically talking about professional licensed equipment. A walkie-talkie is generally a hand-held CB radio. A 2 way radio is of superior quality and utilizes much higher frequencies. Two-way radios can also be found in mobile and base-configurations in addition to using radio network-infrastructure.

In addition, two-way radios are usually decked out with a PTT or “Push-to-Talk” key to trigger the transmitter. Users simply press the PTT key and quickly begin a conversation. The user lets go of the PTT key in order to hear others.

A two-way radio user can talk immediately with other radio users or utilize radio network-infrastructure. A direct-talk amongst radios, normally referred to as direct more operation/talk-around mode, has restricted reach because of limited radio power. To defeat this restriction, a radio network-infrastructure can be used to expand the communication range.

WHY USE A TWO WAY RADIO?

With numerous choices in wireless technology today and with 2 way radios being one of the first wireless devices, some wonder if this type of radio is still a useful gadget in the current world of technological communication. Well actually yes. There are two main features that differentiate two-way radios from other wireless gadgets:

-Instantaneous Communication

Two-way radios offer instant communication. Users can simply press the PTT or “Push-To-Talk” key and inside a fraction of a second, the user can instantly speak and convey their message. This is because of the quick-call setup time entrenched in the technology. This quick communication possibility is one of the main reasons why businesses and organizations prefer two-way radios for their operational or tactical communications.

-Group Communication

An additional unique feature of two way radios is its ability to facilitate “group-calls” or “one-to-many” communications very effectively. This means that one user can easily communicate with one, five, twenty, hundreds, or even thousands of other 2 way radio users simultaneously.

In other words, there’s no need for users to repeat themselves time and again if they need to communicate with more than one user. Moreover, two way radios performs perfectly for group communication using a minimal amount of RF channel-resources. If every user were in the same vicinity the majority of the time, they would only need one-channel resources to speak to hundreds of other users.

WHY NOT SIMPLY USE ANY WIRELESS-SYSTEM?

There is an abundance of wireless-technology today, and they all have their advantages and disadvantages. The choice of which technology is idea for one’s group or association will depend upon if the technology can satisfy the user’s requirements. For users who need to function in a group, communicate instantly, and remain mobile, a two-way radio is the best choice compared to the other wireless technology available on the market today.

You may still wonder how this can be possible with smartphones, iPods, iPhones, tablets, mobile phones available. Here are the main reasons why these technological gadgets may NOT meet the above requirements:

-Instant Communication

Consider this scenario. You are out hiking, run into an emergency situation, and must communicate quickly to confirm your dilemma. If you were using a mobile phone, for instance, you must dial a number, wait while the call is being setup and connected; that’s if you get a signal. The phone must then ring to the other person, and they finally answer, if their voicemail isn’t on! The whole procedure could take several seconds and within that valuable time, your situation could easily worsen.

With a 2 way radio, you simply press the PTT key and yell “emergency” while the other users “immediately” pick-up your signal. This is assuming that RF-channel is accessible. However, there is a way that two-way radios features can surmount RF-channel blockage and give highest-priority to emergency calls, a feature not available to other wireless devices.

-Group Communication

Take this example. You need to let your staff know that there has been some changes for a planned meeting. If you have to contact them one at a time, it could become tedious. With a two-way radio, you can simply select your talk-group, press the PTT key, and begin your message to five, 10, 15, or however many staff members you need to communicate with simultaneously. Now, raise that number to 1000 workers and imagine the work involved if you had to go through cellular phone channels.

Though some wireless systems permit group calls, it usually restricts the amount of group members that you can communicate with at one time. With a two way radio, you simply need to speak once and be heard by many.

WHO USES 2 WAY RADIOS?

Two-way radios have been utilized for many years by numerous industries and associations. Because of the nature of their operational requirements, they use two way radios to broadcast their operational and communicational needs. Organizations and industries that may depend on two-way radio usage are:

-Public Safety associations such as EMS emergency medical services, police, ambulance service, fire brigade, disaster-recovery agency
-Security like intelligence agencies and military
-Transportation industries like subway, railways, seaports, airports, subways
-Oil and gas companies
-Utility companies like cable TV, telephone, water, gas, electricity
-Construction companies for road and bridges, residential, commercial
-Transport service companies like trucks, limos, taxis
-Hospitality industries like tourism, restaurant, resort, and hotel
-Service industry such as towing and delivery companies
-Government agencies like public works, embassies, municipal, district governments, and ministries
-Manufacturing
-Contractors for roofing, plumbing, excavating, electrical
-And many more…

Overall, those who utilize two-way radios are frequently businesses or agencies with many staff members or workers who work in groups and are mobile.

TWO WAY RADIOS TODAY

Today, two-way radios come with additional or improved features from years before. For example, display screens show important information at a quick glance, keypads lock to maintain channel settings, there are various ring-tones and silencers to choose from along with out of range alerts, and much more!

I still remember working in a place where I had one of those name plates on my desk. Even though I didn’t have my own office room, the owners of the business I worked for thought that it would be a nice idea to give us each desk name plates with our names on it to make us feel better. To be honest, those name tags did make me feel better and I felt like I was more valuable to my company. It worked and it definitely improved my productivity as well as dedication to the company for which I worked. Thanks to the nametags I was offered, I was more loyal to the company and I felt more like being part of it.

One of the nicest things about engraved name plates is that even before you order one of them to hang on the door of your office or to be on your desk, you have a chance to preview them or even design them yourself. This is a neat feature as customised things are among my favorite things. I like to customize whenever it is possible and as much as it is possible. It just gives me so much fun to be able to do it. When I worked for the company I mentioned earlier in this post, I did not really have a chance to design my own name plate, but I believe that in the future I will be more persistent when it comes to such things. I really like to be able to design my own things to give them a personalised touch. I strongly believe that my employer should give me a right to do so without any remorse. I look forward to all those times in the future I am going to spend on customising my own choices.

I have been a huge fan of online messaging for many years now. For as long as I can remember, I have been communicating with various people from all around the globe and enjoying it every single time. Nothing indicates that anything is going to change any time soon as I am going to continue doing so for a very long time. The list of my friends and contacts from many different countries continues to grow and I simply enjoy keeping it that way.

I became interested in secure messaging several months ago after somebody pointed out to me that the way I stay in touch with different people around the world might not be the most secure way to communicate with them. I have to tell you that I do mind whether nobody can listen to those conversations as some of the topics I discuss there are rather personal and they are intended to be heard by the right people only. This whole situation made me realize that there is something a lot more to personal as well as business communication than I previously thought there was. The newest solutions allow a person to be completely safe and secure knowing that nothing or nobody is going to be able to listen. This is a huge relief for people like me who value their privacy. If you know me in person, you know how private I can sometimes (or most of the time) I can be. I only trust a selected group of people, but once I already trust somebody I am willing to pour out my heart to them.

After I discovered that there were more secure ways to communicate with others including secure file transfer, I began my research immediately. After already a few minutes I was able to find something that piqued my interest. I am thinking here about the solution known as VIPole. So, what exactly is VIPole? If you are a huge fan of instant messaging, you will definitely enjoy reading the rest of this post knowing how your privacy, security and overall safety is going to protect with the help of the software. In a nutshell, VIPole is a very useful thing to have with you if you value your privacy the way I do. It is a secure instant messenger allowing you to communicate with anybody whether it be for business or pleasure. It is powered by some really strong encryption technologies to ensure maximum user privacy. Once you start using it, you will see that everything you send over the Internet is safe from prying eyes or any other surveillance efforts that somebody might want to put to make sure that they know what it is that you do on the Internet. If you were worried about the safety of your group chats, video calls, instant messages, and files, now you can rest assured that they are going to be safe in the hands of the software.

I usually write on this blog about technology simply because the topic fascinates me. The topic of music is also closely related to technology because when it comes to music it usually boils down to the equipment you have at your disposal. If you have some nice musical accessories from places such as musician’s friend you are more likely to enjoy playing music.

I know from experience that many website owners would like to add a Chat box onto their websites hoping that their visitors would have a better experience this way. Some of them know how to do it, while some of them don’t. Being able to host a group chat room can indeed be a very enjoyable experience, especially if your regular visitors would like to get to know each other by being able to talk with one another in real time.

If you look at this demo of RumbleTalk, you will immediately notice that the chat comes in two ways: one described above, and one that adds a floating icon in the bottom of the right corner of your website. It is totally up to you to choose the option that you like more and make the most from it.

There are two killer features that make RumbleTalk absolutely fabulous and amazing to use. The first of those features is being able to use RumbleTalk chat themes. It turns out that RumbleTalk has a set of chat themes that a website owner can choose to design his own theme. If you like customization like I do, you will be happy with this particular feature. The second selling point of the platform is its compatibility with tablets and smart phones and their operating systems.

Ever since the Internet started becoming very popular, the question of privacy on the Net started being raised as well. As internet users, can we really feel safe and secure while sending messages to others? Can we be really sure that no one reads our emails or listens to our conversations with others? In this post, I will talk a little about ways to increase your internet security, privacy, and safety, so that you all can fully enjoy everything that the Internet has to offer. The Internet is a wonderful tool allowing its users to effectively communicate with others regardless of their location. You can be anywhere in the world and still get to know various people from all walks of life and living in different parts of the world.

One of the first things you will want to do to protect your privacy on the Internet is to get a secure messenger. The idea behind secure messengers is that before you send any message, the messenger will encrypt every way in such a way so that only you and the recipient of the message are able to read it. the data is encrypted so strongly that only two parties can gain access to it. There is no room for prying eyes here and noone will ever be able to read your messages unless you allow them to do it yourself. What is more, all messages that you send are receive are stored safely on your PC in encrypted form so that nobody can have access to them.

You can download messenger here and see for yourself how easily it is to use it. You will be surprised how many features this type of messenger can offer you not only in terms of being able to send and receive messages, but also in terms of voice communication. Thanks to the latest technology in data encryption, users of secure messengers can be sure that the whole process takes place in privacy and there is no way somebody is ever going to hijack any conversation.

I am very glad that such solutions already exist allowing me to have any conversation I want to be as secure as possible. Privacy on the Internet has been one of my primary concerns until I came across some of the most secure online messengers I could put my hands on. To be honest, I am not even using any non-secure messengers anymore as there is so much to secure messengers than meets the eye. Did you know, for example, before you start talking to anybody in the world, your voice is encrypted in such a way so that nobody can access it? This is not only good news for those business executives who rely on privacy in order to be able to communicate, but this is also great news for anybody who values their own privacy, and I am sure that many people these days do. The Internet can be a dangerous and intimidating place, but with the help of secure messengers everything becomes a lot safer.

Online trading is the most common way of trading in our day and age. In the past any form of trading was conducted manually by a human person; once a trade would be submitted by a broker it would be manually traded on the Stock Exchange floor by brokers who would raise their hands and physically buy and sell Stocks, Commodities and other financial assets.

While technology evolved most Stock markets have moved on to online e-trading which is a software which replaced the human trade floor brokers, trading is now conducted faster and in a more efficient way (although there is still an occasional malfunction)

Technology trading is an online platform which creates a virtual trading arena which brings the buyers and the sellers and allows instant trading. The new way of trading created a new financial world leading online trading to be used not only by Business to Business industry (Brokers to Stock Exchange) but also to a whole new world of Consumer to Business (B2C).

B2C is used by advanced trading platform which allow the trader himself to directly trade on virtual trading platforms such as Forex trading and the more advanced platform known as binary options.

These two are examples of the new trading world and play a significant role in today’s financial world. While Forex trading has been around for many years binary options is a newer form of trading and is gaining popularity by the day.

Binary options allow high speed trading on almost any financial asset worldwide on one trading arena. As oppose to Forex trading binary options doesn’t require any software downloading and uses the latest technology providing a fully web based trading platform. This allows traders to access their trading account from different devices, providing a whole new trading experience.

The industry is now booming and there are many binary options brokers offering their trading platforms, however the technology used to power these trading platforms is almost identical; there are 4-5 technology companies who supply the trading software and the principal used to power these up is identical and is binary i.e. 0 – 1, all or nothing. If a trade is successful and ends in the money (1), then the trader will take a high profit of up to 95% return on investment, if the trade fails (0), the trader will have lost all his initial investment.

Although the technology used by these brokers is the same there are differences between the various brokers and in order to decide which one to use traders must first read some binary options brokers reviews which are available on a wide variety of sites.

While choosing a broker is an important factor on the way to binary success, using other technology driven service can also help. Such services are known as signals. Signals are commonly used in the Forex industry and have recently entered binary options, they are technology driven robots which are used to predict the market movement and are used as part of the traders trading strategy. Instead of using a manual analysis traders use the services of signals providers. Signals robots are fed with an algorithm which predicts the price change of a financial asset.

To conclude; nowadays there are many technologies allowing us to trade from the comfort of our home with a swipe of our finger.

An earpiece allows security professional to communicate in a covert manner without anyone noticing. Earpieces are important to allow communication between the wearer and his/ her team discreetly. There are many earpiece models and makes that a security agent can wear but typically, earpieces are of two major categories i.e. wireless and wired. Within these two categories, there are varying versions and models available. Several factors affect the choice of the ideal earpiece, these factors include:

• Discreetness- Security officials can chose an earpiece based on how discrete they want to be. The level of discreetness is determined by the earpiece style and color of the coiled tube. In-the ear earpieces are obviously discreet because they are worn inside the ear than over-the ear earpiece- with the wires and all. You can choose a colorless earpiece as opposed to a colored one for more secrecy or choose a wired earpiece altogether for total secrecy.

• Comfort- You obviously want the earpiece you chose to be comfortable to wear. Choose an earpiece that fits well and that is made with hypoallergic materials. Some of the important questions to ask before choosing an earpiece include how easy the earpiece is to wear and remove, how easy is to use and control the device, can the earpiece remain intact as long as necessary without falling off.

• Versatility- The right earpiece should make it possible to wear underneath the clothes, attached to a collar or back of the tie.

• Tastes and preferences- Different individuals have different tastes and preferences. You can chose an earpiece that meets your needs and preferences in terms of comfort, style and color
• A security earpiece is normally worn inside or put around the ear depending on the type you choose and is usually connected to a 2- way radio or related device. An earpiece is also worn with a microphone and receiver that makes it possible for a person to communicate with other people wearing a similar earpiece.

Earpieces are normally won by bodyguards and security personnel for instance the US secret service, law enforcement officers and private bodyguards and security personnel to allow discreet communication for security purposes. Earpieces are either wired or wireless, with each type having different models, types, styles and makes

Earpieces can either be worn around the ear or in the entrance of the ear as a small ear bud. For extra discreetness, wireless earpieces are often preferred over wired ones since it’s hard to tell that someone is actually wearing a wireless earpiece as opposed to a wired earpiece. Wireless earpieces often receive signals wirelessly. A person needs to wear a separate microphone at the end of a sleeve or on a lapel. To send a message, the wearer needs to speak into the microphone and receive messages via the wireless earpiece.

A wired earpiece works in the same way as a wireless earpiece the only difference is that the receiver is connected to the earpiece with a wire that anyone can see. However, the wire can be transparent to make it harder for people to notice. The wire is normally worn around the back of the ear to get out of the wearers way.

There are different types of wired earpieces including one wire, two-wire and three wire. One wire microphone consists of a single wire and no microphone, two- wire comprises of an earpiece and a single wire connecting the earpiece to the microphone which is usually connected to a sleeve or lapel.

A three-wire earpiece comprises of an earpiece, a microphone worn on the lapel, and a third wire that normally connects to a separate device on the hand to allow the wearer to activate the microphone at his discretion.

As mentioned above there are typically two types of earpieces and a wide variety of models under each type. The ideal earpiece will be determined by the wearer’s preferences, level of secrecy wanted, cost, comfort, and how versatile the device is.

Earpieceonline.co.uk is flooded with various models and makes so it’s important to understand your needs before buying an earpiece. Buy your earpiece from a reputable source, Do some research before buying your ideal security earpiece to understand the features, components, advantages, and disadvantages?
