Mitex Sports VHF

The Mitex Sports VHF is a powerful 5-watt portable radio, which has been designed and programmed with sports and leisure industries in mind.

Mitex specialises in out-of-the-box PMR449 5-watt two-way radios. These pre-programmed 16-channel radios are an excellent solution for businesses and individuals who require more power and more range than a PMR446 radio can provide. This radio has a range that can extend to up to 25km in optimum conditions. As these radios are far more powerful than PMR446 radios, they require a license, which costs £75 for 5 years. Application forms are included in the pack.

The Mitex Sports VHF is water, dust and shock-resistant and is ideal for outdoor use in sports and leisure environments for activities such as paintballing, fishing, golf, cycling, motorcyclists, abseiling, horse riding, ballooning, rowing, skiing, running, motoring,  rallying, hunting and shooting, and archery.

This Motorola two way radio is available to be programmed as:

VHF: 136 - 174 MHz

*The maximum range given by manufacturers is based on ideal conditions, such as from hilltop to hilltop, but the range you actually get will be much less if you are in a built-up area. Trees, walls, hills and even the weather can affect the range of your two-way radio. Rule of thumb is that for every 1 watt you will get 1 mile of coverage guarantee, or more depending on the conditions.
