Family Matters - Using Two-way Radios to Stay Safe and Save Money

With today’s active lifestyles, it’s sometimes difficult to stay in touch with family members. And yet, being able to easily communicate is exactly what keeps families safe. There are numerous situations when you must stay in touch with family members. Instances such as…

• you need to connect with your kids during the day while you’re at work

• you need to know when your child has arrived safely at a nearby friend’s house

• you must remain available for a nearby elderly or ill relative

Two-way radios can make your life easier and are inexpensive to own. They’ll keep your family connected while biking, hiking, camping, walking, or jogging. The radios will also help you keep track of everyone while at amusement parks or on trips to the beach, or when traveling in a car caravan.

Two-Way Radios Are The Perfect Solution To Family Communication Needs

FRS or Family Radio Service two-way radios, also known as walkie-talkies, are easy for all family members to use. Depending on your needs, Motorola two-way radios feature a variety of options geared toward keeping your family members connected.

With ranges from 5 miles to 12 miles, depending on the terrain, you’re able to easily monitor nearby elderly relatives, making sure they’re always safe. You can communicate with your children throughout the day. And when you go shopping, Motorola walkie-talkies will help you maintain communication with the whole family as they shop their favorite stores.

Save Money While Staying Connected

Two-way radios are much less expensive than cellular phones and can be used to keep everyone in your family connected. Once you purchase the handsets, there are no further charges. With FRS two way radios, there are…

• no monthly bills to pay

• no roaming charges

• no minutes to keep track of

• no worrying about which plan is best for your family’s needs

Stay Safe With Two-Way Radios—Even In Emergency Situations

Two-way radios can also help keep your family safe during an emergency situation. Because disasters strike with little warning, they can cause panic, leading to families becoming separated. Whether it’s a storm, flood, earthquake, or tornado, staying in touch can be a matter of life and death.

Before an emergency hits, put together a plan. Add 2-way radio handsets to your emergency preparedness kits, along with extra batteries. Decide which channel to use for communicating and make sure everyone knows it. Then practice what everyone should do when an emergency strikes. By following the plan, your family members can remain connected through any emergency.

Lightweight and easy to carry, walkie-talkies or two way radios are perfect and for everyday communication and for keeping your family safe during emergency situations.
