Radio Warehouse's Team 8™

Radio Warehouse's Team 8™ is unique programming that adds 8 team channels for you to communicate on without interference by other parties operating by chance on the same frequency. These are perfect for business use and do not require a licence to access. Other radios not programmed with our Team 8™ programming, will not be able to talk to your radios on these channels.

Personalised Programming

Select if you have an existing radio system and need your new radios to match your existing system. We will typically ask a new Radio Warehouse customer to temporarily send us one of your existing radios so we can clone its programming details so the newly purchased equipment operates seamlessly along side the existing equipment once it is put into operation. Also select this option, if you are now requesting your own licensed frequency and/or need to access custom features in the radio that are not enabled by default settings.
