Radio Conversation

Radio Conversation

Radio (walkie-talkie) is a hand-held, convenient two-way radio transceiver, multiple walkie-talkies can utilize a single radio channel, and just a single radio on the channel can transmit at once, although any number can listen. Radio Communication for security officers is very important for passing and getting the information.

Normally the radio is in the receive mode. When you need to talk must “push-to-talk” (PTT) button that automatically turns off the receiver and turns on the transmitter.

General Rules whilst using radio:

  • When using a radio, speak clearly and slowly.
  • Always use the phonetic alphabet and the 24-hour clock on the radio.
  • Be careful what you say on the radio, as someone else may be listening. Think before what to say and how to say it.
  • Speak clearly, carefully, be brief and concise.
  • Don’t break another transmission unless there is an emergency.
  • Don’t give your location, telephone numbers or other private information.
  • Although the radio is for communication don’t use for personal communication.
  • The necessity for a clear speech on the two-way radio communication the RSVP system is important for you to learn.
