According to the increasing usage needs of customers, Motorola has launched a new walkie talkie: A8 DMR.
The A8 DMR is an entry-level DMR walkie talkie under Motorola MAGONE. Continuing the iconic design of the original Mag one series walkie talkies and considering durability and reliability, it is suitable for commercial activities such as warehousing, property management, and hotels.

CTCSS function on walkie-talkies covers a frequency range from 67.0Hz to 250.3Hz. When transmitting in analog sub-tone mode, it transmits by continuously superimposing low-frequency, inaudible signals onto the carrier frequency, ensuring that only receivers receiving the same frequency can interpret the signal. This achieves anti-interference capabilities or allows the receiver to reject signals from other third parties.
