The Family Radio Service ( FRS) is an improved walkie-talkie radio system authorized in the United States since 1996. This personal radio service uses channelized frequencies around 462 and 467 MHz in the ultra high frequency (UHF) band. It does not suffer the interference effects found on citizens' band (CB) at 27 MHz, or the 49 MHz band also ...
Some professional systems use a phase-reversal of the CTCSS tone at the end of a transmission to eliminate the squelch crash or squelch tail. This is common with General Electric Mobile Radio and Motorola systems. When the user releases the push-to-talk button the CTCSS tone does a phase shift for about 200 milliseconds.
PTT ID. PTT ID, or Push-To-Talk ID, is a generic term for an automatic number identification (ANI) -like system used in two-way radio systems. It provides identification of the transmitting radio over the air, and is commonly used in selective calling /signaling systems, usually in commercial and public safety radio systems. PTT ID features are ...
A walkie-talkie, more formally known as a handheld transceiver ( HT ), is a hand-held, portable, two-way radio transceiver. Its development during the Second World War has been variously credited to Donald Hings, radio engineer Alfred J. Gross, Henryk Magnuski and engineering teams at Motorola. First used for infantry, similar designs were ...

[1] UHF CB provides 77 channels, including 32 channels (16 output, 16 input) allocated to repeater stations. It is similar in concept to the General Mobile Radio Service in the United ...
Two-way radio. A two-way radio is a radio transceiver (a radio that can both transmit and receive radio waves ), which is used for bidirectional person-to-person voice communication with other users with similar radios, [1] in contrast to a broadcast receiver, which only receives transmissions. Two-way radios usually use a half-duplex ...
