There is a range of portable and mobile radios, compact 6-unit smart charger units, base stations and accessories that will help you to set up, run and manage your event efficiently and safely. Two way radios have multiple channels allowing you to allocate different channels for different tasks to avoid confusion. As an example you can have one channel for security, another for car parking, another for event management, medical issues etc.
You could decide to purchase the radios and accessories but for events and festivals it is usually much more cost effective to rent the radios you need.
PORTABLE RADIOS
Keeping everyone on the grounds in immediate contact; for security, parking attendants, medical staff, maintenance, technicians, stage and event management teams. Make sure that you consider everyone who may need radios.
SPARE BATTERY PACKS
If the radios are likely to be in use 24 hours a day, you will need to hire some spare battery packs for them. The spare batteries can be left on the chargers, ready to be quickly swapped over as necessary. With at least two battery packs for each radio, the radio should always be available for use while the extra batteries are being recharged.
EARPIECE / MICROPHONES AND HEADSETS
Without earpieces, you may find that some of your staff cannot hear their radio over the music and/or the noise of the crowd.
These are the most popular radio accessories for Events
.
MOBILE RADIOS
If you have security vehicles driving around the site, and out into the surrounding countryside, then your rental company or radio dealer can provide mobile radios that have a longer range than the portable radios.
BASE STATION RADIO
You may want a more powerful radio in your event control office, to ensure that your two way radio users even at the furthest-away points on your event site can hear messages from the event management.
REPEATERS
If your event site is simply too large for radios to cover on their own, one or more repeaters to extend the area covered may be necessary.
