Today we're gonna talk about car to car communication radios
and base camp packages.
What Rugged does is we've used the really really rugged and reliable
Vertex VX2200 mobile radio.
Now this is a 50 Watt mobile radio so you're going to have a lot of power to
get out and reach the people that you need to reach.
Really reliable, they work extremely well for us, it's the number one mobile radio
that we sell.
So, all of our kits we base them around this radio.
So the basic kit, so let's start off with a chase package. You have a chase vehicle:
you just need the radio in the vehicle, you don't need anything else. So we put
the Vertex 2200 in, the kit comes with the antenna cable, this is
a three eights whole NMO mount.
Very easy to drill, put in and install.
It comes with the hand mic, so you got a nice, loud hand mic with a loud
front speaker on the front of the radio. Then,
we have a special antenna. We use a Laird Technologies half wave no ground
plane antenna. So if you're going to mount it on a chase rack, you're going to mount on
something that you don't quite have enough ground plane. Ground plane you
need at least three by three metal roof to mount it on. This you can mount it on
virtually anything. And if you mount it on a ground plane, works even better! It comes
with an easy U bracket mounting that easily bolts on. It gives you all the
screws, bolts, everything you need.
We have the same base kit that we use for car to car. So say you have an intercom
system,
and you want to hook up a car to car radio,
Our first, our basic car to car system
you take the same kit,
your Vertex 2200 comes to the antenna cable, antenna, hand mic,
everything you'll need,
but it also comes at the adapter to plug in
this radio to your intercom system.
It simply plugs in,
very easy, turn it on, off you run.
Then you can use the PTT right in your headset for two-way radio
transmitting.
You can also upgrade this to our deluxe package. Our deluxe packages are our car to
car kit with push the talks. Comes with everything we've shown here also, but
it comes to two velcro mount PTTs.
What these allow you to do is it has a straight cord one,
so you can simply for the passenger side the straight cord works best for the
passenger side. You plug it into the back of your intercom, you route it over to the
grab bar, when the passenger wants to talk, he hits his push to talk.
Then for the driver, we use a velcro mount PTT. Now this will velcro mount PTT
is a special one. It has a very long section of straight cord and a very long section
of coil cord. What this does because for the driver you're going to mount it on the
steering wheel.
So the straight section goes down the roll bar from the intercom system down
toward the steering column. Then you wrap the coil cord around the steering
column and up to the steering wheel. That way when you turn the steering wheel right or
left,
you don't pull the coil cord stretches and pulls instead of
pulling on a straight cord that may break the cord.
So, real simple,
we have our basic packages, it's all based around the Vertex powerful
50 Watt radio.
This thing works great in the car, in the chase vehicles, in the motor homes,
everywhere. Great platform for your communications.
