![]() ![]() Here is a method that does not require a PC.An old cell phone that is capable of loading the Zello app on, has wifi, a interface cable, and a two-way radio and you have yourself a inexpensive VOIP radio setup for use on Zello.Ī few months back when we were doing some testing for other useful VOIP linking equipment I built a interface box that went between my iPhone 4 and my Midland XTR 70-1530B Radio. USGMRS Repeater & Users Group Association Welcome Page | Giving GMRS Users A Way To Communicate Across America Lets have some serious discussions on this.if there are any to be had.ĬEO, USGMRS Repeater & Users Group Association and/or facts to support what you know, feel, or thinking. Is Zello's way of doing things not the same as say other Linking methods used in other bands? Would/could Zello be construed as being a "cross band" means of communications? I have the abilty to do the same method of Zello using my own servers just like I'm doing currently with my ROIP linking system. but at the same time, it's really not much different than any other method of VOIP such as app_rpt. My thought on the subject is that it could be construed as "cross banding". The question has been ask of me numerous times as to if it is legal to use Zello as a interface for the linking and control of base/repeaters. They state on their website "Push the button for instant, radio-style talk on any Wi-Fi or data plan". I'm sure some, in not most of you, are familiar with "Zello" the walkie-talkie app for andriod/iPhone phones. Here is some food for thought and maybe even a question. Commercial, Professional Radio and Personal Radio.We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola). The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate just purchase it.įor M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. ![]() Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood).

If parents want to let kids download this app, they will probably want to use the parent controls and talk to kids about what information they shouldn't share.To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software: For teens, though, there are still some risks, as it's easy for adults to join kid-oriented channels and for teens to share too much information. Also, it's interesting to be a part of an audio chat room instead of a text-based one, as hearing someone's voice does add to the experience. However, for people with just enough connectivity, it has proved extremely useful to go on to search-and-rescue channels to request help. You'd think Zello Walkie Talkie would be your go-to during natural disasters or other crises when internet service becomes unavailable unfortunately, without an internet connection, the app doesn't work. Good as the app is, its limits become immediately apparent at times when it could be of most use. Though there are plenty of iffy channels to find, it's no sweat for parents to set up a PIN to prevent kids from accessing them. Setting up new channels is a snap, and a channel search function lets you find channels for anything from hurricane search-and-rescue to Hello Kitty. This walkie-talkie app has a number of good things going for it: It's easy to set up, its sound quality is good, and it has password-protected parental controls. ![]()
