Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this twin pack ready to use out of the box?
A: Absolutely! The UH610-2 Max includes 2 complete radios with 6 x AA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries (3 per radio, pre-installed), 1 AC adaptor for mains charging, 2 USB-C cables for portable charging, plus mounting accessories. Simply charge the batteries and start communicating immediately with powerful 7+km range.
Q: What's the advantage of the twin pack versus buying singles?
A: The UH610-2 Max twin pack provides better value than purchasing two singles, includes complete charging solution for both radios (6 batteries, adaptor, 2 cables), and ensures you have a matched pair ready for immediate 2-way communication. Perfect for couples, adventure partners, or parent-child exploration teams.
Q: Can both radios use voice scramble to talk privately?
A: Yes! Both radios feature compatible voice scramble technology. When enabled with matching scramble codes, your communications are encrypted preventing eavesdropping from other UHF users on the same channel. This provides private communication for sensitive discussions while exploring remote areas.
Q: How do I charge both radios?
A: Multiple charging options included! Use the AC adaptor to charge one radio at a time from mains power, or use the 2 included USB-C cables to charge both radios simultaneously from power banks, vehicle USB ports, solar panels, or any USB power source for flexible on-the-go charging.
Q: What's the real-world range I can expect with 1 Watt power?
A: The 7+km specification is line-of-sight range in open terrain. Real-world performance: open fields/beaches 5-7km, light forest 2-4km, dense vegetation/urban 1-3km, mountainous valleys variable depending on terrain. The 1 Watt power significantly outperforms 500mW radios in all conditions, especially penetrating obstacles and maintaining signal in challenging environments. Duplex repeater access extends range to 30+km depending on repeater location.
