KENWOOD Kenwood UBZ-LJ9SET Walkie Talkies, 2-Way PMR446 Licence Free FM Radio’s, Handheld, 6km Range, 32 Channels, USB-C Charging, Illuminated Dot Matrix Display – Black/Green (Pack of 2)

The Kenwood UBZ-LJ9SET is a lightweight, durable and super compact pocket-sized licence-free PMR446 radio set that delivers simple, reliable and affordable communication straight out of the box. The Kenwood UBZ-LJ9SET model is a set of two ergonomic walkie-talkies that allows each user to easily and efficiently control their daily communications and start talking on the move right away. Affiliated to the category of licence-free systems, the Kenwood UBZ-LJ9SET radio’s operate via the PMR446 frequency band and allows free, unlimited conversations without subscription, whilst offering next-level range, ease and efficiency for days on end. So whether you’re hitting the hiking trails on foot, are off on an epic two wheeled adventure or are just simply getting out and about and need a means of clear, long range communication, you will always benefit from the super compact Kenwood UBZ-LJ9SET two-way radio set, thanks to its capability of offering a maximum range of 6km (Dependant on terrain and local conditions). Manufactured with high quality materials and an ultra-compact, super lightweight chassis design that fits perfectly into the palm of your hand, the UBZ-LJ9SET offers an optimal grip and maximum carrying comfort for daily use. But despite its size, it still manages to squeeze in an illuminated DOT matrix display, making it easy to consult and navigate across 32 available channels to speak to different users and call groups, plus it easily adapts to harsh environments thanks to its IP32 certification which attests to their protection against solid objects greater than 2.5mm as well as drops of water. Making a call itself couldn’t be simpler. No need to listen to a dial tone and wait for the other user to accept – just press the push-to-talk (PTT) button and speak, and everyone connected to your chosen channel will hear you. And even if your hands are full with something else, no problem. In VOX mode, the UBZ-LJ9 will transmit your voice as soon as you speak, without needing to press a thing. In the context of two-way radio, ‘licence free’ means you don’t have to pay for a broadcasting licence to use available frequencies. That’s because the UBZ-LJ9 makes use of the 446 MHz frequency band, which across Europe is designated as the free-to-use public range. While licence-free radio is great for keeping costs down, one drawback is that you can often pick up interference from other users on the crowded public airwaves. The UBZ-LJ9 resolves this using Kenwood’s patented Digital Quiet Tone (QT) technology, a selective calling protocol that means only users sharing the same signal tone can hear transmissions. In addition to this, through a process known as ‘squelching’, this technique reduces hiss from unused channels, plus there is also adjustable noise reduction sensitivity to give the user exceptional control over audio quality. A removable and rechargeable 1150mAh lithium-ion battery will keep you going and communicating with your friends or fellow travellers, as it provides up to 18 hours of long life battery time on a single charge, based on just over one hour 45 minutes total usage transmitting and receiving calls (the rest on standby). The Kenwood UBZ-LJ9SET radios are equipped with VOX and scanning functions, as well as having a double 2.5/3.5mm jack connector allowing you to combine a large selection of audio accessories, for simplified hands-free use and with its selection of different ring tones, you will always know who is on the other end. A USB-C port provides dual charging options via a USB power supply unit, so batteries can also be charged while attached to the handset or separately once removed. The Kenwood UBZ-LJ9 two-way radios offer easy compatibility with other PMR446 radios, meaning you can quickly integrate the twin handsets into larger call groups.
