Two-way Radio?s Contribution to Communication

"Mobile phones make a huge impact on every person’s life. It’s no longer a luxury but a necessity because it comes in handy. Before coming to be though, it was the two-way radio with two way radio headset which the world knew. Two-way radio communication influences a lot of people in many ways. The two-way radio is usually found and used inside official vehicles like cabs, police cars, ambulances, even for motorcycle communication. As to the world’s most famous two-way radio brand, Motorola’s two-way radio comes to mind.

Mobile phones originally served the purpose of a two-way radio, which is also called mobile rigs but technically speaking, a two-way radio is not considered a mobile phone since it is not connected to any telecommunications network. Mobile phones have gradually evolved into transportable gadgets identified as bag phones, for they could be carried and used either as mobile or portable two-way radio. The first mobile telephones were called “first generation telephones” or 1G. The 1G era ran from the late seventies through the eighties. 1G pioneered mobile telephones albeit being called cellular mobile radiophones for they rely on analog signals. Analog signal is the main difference between the first generation mobile telephones and second generation mobile telephones.

The second generation mobile phones were introduced in the market in the early nineties. Unlike the analog 1G phones, 2G phones use digital technology to provide voice services, short message service (SMS) and WAP. The 2G mobile phone is more advantageous than 1G because it uses lower radio signals that require lesser battery power, thus allowing it to perform longer between battery charging. What’s more is that 2G phones can come in a tinier and slimmer package, even its batteries! In line with this, 2G phones offer more privacy and makes eavesdropping less possible unlike with 1G phones. After the success of 2G mobile phones, the 2.5G was introduced but only to marketing bosses. It was called as such because it is described as a post-2G, but not on a certain extent as 3G. As 2G and 2.5G phones were introduced, the two-way radio with headset was still predominantly used by motorists.

Later came the 3G phones, which was first launched by the Japan company, NTT DoCoMo, in May 2001 and was launched commercially in the same country in October 2001. The 3G phones allowed network operators like Vodafone and T-Mobile to offer their consumers a wider range of advanced services. These comprise video calls, broadband internet, and the like. Despite this new technology, the -way radio communication was still much favored by motorists, especially those working in public offices.

Because of today’s fast-paced technology, 4G phones arrived and introduced in the market positively new features like live streaming of television and radio shows.

As technology continues to evolve and with people clamoring for new models of mobile phones every time, expect stuff like Motorola radio’s two- way to constantly update its features to provide the ever-changing demands and needs of the public.

Impression of Testing Two Way Radio Midland Gxt 550

Design

It's to time to tell about my testing of Midland GXT 550. This two-way radio differs from Midland GXT 500 only in camouflage coloring of enclosure. The enclosure is made of thick rough-service plastic. Once you take it, you feel its massiveness. It's no wonder, as it weighs 6.9ounce (196 gram) with battery and clip. To say about battery, it's NiCd (nickel-cadmium) with capacity 600mAh.

Testing

Preparing for the test

So, let's try to prove or deny manufacturer's statement about connection distance. Having charged battery and turned on our two-way radios at full power my friend and me went in opposite directions.

Connection range in the city

At first we decided to have a walk in the city and to check the quality and range of communication. To save time we chose district at the end of the city as non-uniformly built-up area. My friend stood still, I moved away on certain distance and periodically tried to connect with him. At the first interval of my way the connection was clear in the distance of about 1.2 km taking into account that I was in the car, as it influence badly on connection quality because metal impedes passing of radio waves. Having turned on ring road, I noted some impairment of connection, I heard bang, noise etc and couldn't explain the reason as far as the distance didn't change much. I drove some more, then got out of the car and tried to connect but there was no result. This journey is reflected on the map number one (1). Here you can see and approximately estimate the distance of Midland GXT 550 operation.

Having turned about I drove in opposite direction. This tour is indicated as number two (2). Truth to tell, the results do not much differ from the previous ones, the range of clear communication was about 0.75 mile (1.2 km) and when the road turned the connection was lost but resumed in several tens of meters.

In the city “on the straightaway”

Don't hurry to feel upset about not so good performance. In the next experiment we succeeded in having decent operation with 5 watts of power.

Then we decided to take up position at opposite ends of the city, namely on two railway bridges, and tried to connect on supposed straight line across the whole city.

Now about the results. The quality of communication is not ideal, though there were bang and noise it didn't disturb much. The range of communication was 2.93 mile (4.7 km). I guess, it could be much better.

Out of town on highway

Cheered up we decided to try our strength, that is the strength of Midland GXT 550 radio, along main highway that led from the city to the one of the region's town. I left my friend on the railway bridge almost in the center of the city and rapidly moved away. First communication sessions I had from car and they were literally ideal. So, I drove out the city without getting of car, it was about 6 km.

Having the cheek or better to say having the confidence I passed the town at high speed, then passed new-building area and stopped. Referring to the speedometer the distance counted up 7.5 mile (12 km). And there was CONNECTION. And it seemed not to be the limit. From the satellite you can see the picture of site I talk about.

Accessories

Headset

It is necessary to note that the headset going with Midland GXT550 works perfectly and provides good audibility in the city, where the level of noise is always very high. As for me, I don't like to attract unneeded attention, so I hide my two-way radio under my jacket and turned on eVOX, (this feature is for hands-free transmission).

The only deficiency – when the level of noise is very high the two-way radio almost all the time works in transmit mode and it is impossible to change the mode to receive forcedly. If you don't want your battery to run down quickly it's better to use the button of transmission on the wiring of headset.

Battery

I bought two-way radios with battery in pack (capacity 600mAh) and I should say those battery have very long life. I have never had such problems when it is necessary to connect promptly and radio is out of work. Keep in mind, in case of low battery level two-way radio switches itself to reduced power mode, that's why I recommend you to have spare АА batteries, which may prove useful, who knows.

Conclusion

Two-way radio Midland GXT 550 has firm enclosure and stable antenna, also the radio is waterproof and there is little place for dirt to accumulate.

The capacity of batteries in pack is 600 mAh, that is enough, but at present time there are batteries with capacity of 2000 mAh and it would be great to have such ones.

Headset is rather good thing, when you do not want to attract attention. With it you have very clear sound as if you talk face-to-face.

The ranges of our connections:

in the center of the city – 0.75 mile (1.2 km)

in the city (“on the straightaway”) – 2.93 mile (4.7km)

out of town on highway – 7.5 mile (12 km )


Neither accuracy nor approach of this investigation can be the ground to consider it seriously. It just depicts my experience with use of Midland GXT 550 two-way radio and I hope it helps you to get some idea about performance capabilities of Midland two-way radios and choose them for personal use.
