Withdrawal of Support for Older Maxon, Kenwood, Kirisun and Motorola products. 8/12/2021

We will withdraw support for a number of older radios as of 1st January 2022. Considering Maxon closed in 2016, and there is little support from the other manufacturers for products over 7 years we have done well to support the majority of their products but the time has come to cease support for all these older radios - some being over 35 years old! In addition, we no longer are able to program old radios due to their old programming software requirements ( Windows 98 and before!). We can still program all equipment which uses >Windows XP programming software.

We will also stop all support for Taxi Radio Systems unless they have a Support Contract in place. There will be no ad-hoc support for Taxi radios.

We continue to fully support newer radios and carry spares and batteries for most popular models. Products where support is withdrawn.

New from Motorola - the CLR series. 22/6/2021

With the withdrawal of the CLP446 radios, Motorola have launched the new CLR series of radios with a unique "Oversized PTT" radio for easy on-site communications with both a PMR446 and a 1W Licensed version in a palm sized radio with built in speaker and simple operation. These radios are both Analogue, and are ideal for workers who need to communicate without rummaging for their radio as the large PTT makes it easy to talk. The Licensed version is only 1W transmit power, but this makes battery life last all day, and the radio is easily compatible with Repeaters. Read More.

Icom Delivery Issues. 22/4/2021

Icom will be re-introducing some older models which are unaffected by these chip shortages and we (Red Radio) can recommend suitable and fully compatible alternatives in the meantime, including the PT400 PMR446 radio and the PT500 Licensed radio. For a full statement from Icom click Read More.

NEW from Red Radio - DR5100, DMR portable with full Man-Down Alarms and Personal Protection 12th February 2020

The latest in the award winning "Lynx" series of radios, the palm sized DR5100 has been designed for the professional user, with a rugged and robust housing which meets Military Standard MILSTD810F and IP65 for water & dust ingress and shock resilience. The DR5100 is fully featured, punching way above its price, with its nearest spec competitor >£120 more!*

In reality no other DMR digital radio comes close, in features or price.

The DR5100 is not only tough - its smart too, with inbuilt features for Personal Protection including Man Down, Lone Worker, Panic Button - all programmable to allow ultimate flexibility and control and allow systems for full staff protection.

Unique to the higher tier RED products, the DR5100 has full Voice Annunciation, just "channel annunciation" , with unique alarms "spoken" to the radios in the group.

Only available with Red Radio's DR5100 is the option for Groups to have dedicated voice prompts. Eg. If you are a garden centre and use different channels to call different groups of people; we can program bespoke systems - for channels to say as an example "Gift Shop" for Channel 5, etc, or bespoke alarm prompts such as "Fire Alarm" etc. This unique option allows simple operation for teams and clearly defined alarm conditions.

The DR5100 has a Panic button and programmable keys to allow numerous alarm conditions to be sent across the group.

Thanks to BTL technology and a crisp Loudspeaker giving 1 Watt of audio output the DR5100 is much better to hear in noisy environments than its competitors. The radio has a standard “M1” fit audio accessory connector and there is full compatibility with the “Lynx” range of radios, sharing battery chargers and audio accessories.

Voice annunciation of Channel number allows simple operation and the battery status can be easily checked at the press of a button to give a voice prompt of its state.

The radio comes complete with a high capacity (1700mAH Li-ion) battery and single way fast charger, with six way chargers available as an optional extra.

* The DR5100 comes as STANDARD with Man-Down, Lone Worker , Panic Button and Pseudo Trunk, text messaging and voice text messaging, Direct Mode and Remote Monitor/Disable . Voice Alerts decoding is not available on any other radio so nearest equivalent is one with a LCD display. No other radio has ability for bespoke voice prompts.
