its like a base station. They put it in your ear and walk about 20 miles and see if it works. Its just like a walkitalkie. Isnt it?

 

[chrismoll]

Ok....Anybody ever see the tv show "Without a Trace"???they are the FBI and they have the coiled wir earpiece and the wrist thing...THNAKS FOR THE HEPL guys!!!!!!!very fast too....

It's just a ear peice going to the speaker output on a radio that they have clippped to their belts. And its a mic worn on the wrist that may have a VOX on it. Nothing special about it. You can buy speaker mics easily enough.

Yup. HT on their belt, speaker in the ear, (some are custom fitted) and a mic on the wrist (actually it clips on the cuff of your shirt). Because lapel mics look stupid when you're wearing a suit and tie.

JR has it correct.The HT is either on the belt or often is in the inside pocket of the suit coat,speaker output fed to the earpiece and the mic clipped to the shirt cuff.Usually there is a PTT button somewhere as well as not all comms are VOX.

Just to let you know Santa, they only have about 1.5 mile range on the watch walkie-talkie, I just go an idea, hook and amp to the radio watch and watch it flame with power and smoke up from overloading... :twisted: :twisted:
