The MURS NT is ultra small in size, lightweight, and high power. This radio only weighs 10 ounces and fits nicely in your hand. You can use it with other MURS radios, plus this one is specifically good for use with our MURS Callboxes with Gate Control. If you need to open a gate, all you have to do is press one of the feature buttons on the MURS NT and it will activate the relay on the Callbox. We deliver this radio with its Orange button on top programmed to open a gate on our gate opening callboxes.
In addition there are three Programmable Feature Buttons (PFB) on the front face that provide easy, one-button access to a specific feature/function. These buttons can be programmed to have no function when pressed, toggle ON or OFF a specific feature, transmit a Call Tone, or a variety of other features/functions (see below in the Feature Highlights section for features that can be programmed on the PFBs, or are selectable through a menu choice). If you want to program additional feature buttons, you will need the optional PC programming kit.
If you just need a solution for your on-site and in-plant communications, the MURS NT is an excellent solution to use with other MURS radios. At the push-of-a-button, you can be in two places at once to communicate with multiple work groups, coordinate activities, or expedite customer orders.
The rugged and reliable MURS NT portable radio will save you time and money by allowing your employees to work smarter and more efficiently with no air-time charges or monthly fees. It is built to Military-Specification standards, which makes it resistant to damage from drops, dust, and moisture. Three decades of designing, manufacturing, and supplying reliable, professional wireless communications products worldwide has led to one of the best two-way radios on the market today.
The MURS NT also has an Emergency Call Feature which allows the radio user to immediately notify all other radios on the same channel. For example, if the radio user should become injured, trapped, or is in danger, a simple push of the orange button will activate this feature. When this button is pressed for 2 seconds the radio sends the alert tone which sounds in the speakers on other radios. The microphone on the sending radio is activated so the radio will transmit hands-free for 5 seconds after the emergency tone is sounded. This allows the person sending the alert to verbally call for help without having to press the button again.
Use the MURS NT for Security, Schools, Construction, Retail Stores, Manufacturing/Warehousing, Special Events, Maintenance, Hotel/Motel/Property Management, or any application where you need to be mobile, but still need to be in touch.
