What Is the Radio Manpack Kit Used For?

A manpack HF radio lets a small team stay in touch with a base station, vehicles or other teams while it moves through areas that have no mobile coverage. Signals on 1.6–30 MHz can travel well beyond line of sight, which is why HF remains the usual choice for long-range field links. The USB, LSB and AM modes cover the common HF voice modes, and the wider 250 kHz–30 MHz receive range lets operators listen outside the transmit band.

Integrated ALE (CALM) sets up a link on a working channel automatically, so operators do not have to search channels by hand. Selective, group and emergency calls reach the right people, while message calls carry short texts of up to 64 characters. Before each deployment, run the local diagnostics and a channel test call from every set.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of Radio Manpack Kit sets and the teams that will carry them.
  • How you will provide 12 V DC power in the field, including batteries and recharging.
  • The other HF stations in your network, so ALE (CALM) and selective calling can be matched.
  • The frequencies licensed to your organisation, so channel set-up can be discussed.
