Pardon the noob question but I am completely confused with what MIGHT need to be done or purchased here.
Let me get started. I work for a company that uses these TERRIBLE KENWOOD TK-3170 radios. Most of us use our cellphones instead of actually using the radios because they are so damn unreliable. We have another group that uses some other Motorola radios and their communication with us is always stellar. Seems that the Motorola's work much much better.
I spoke with my department head and after months or complaining he has agreed to look into replacing our radios.
I have a buddy of mine who has a lot of Motorola Saber III radios that he picked up from a government auction. At one time he used them in his paintball league but since then he has married, has kids and hasnt touched these in a good few years. I called him up and inquired about him selling me one and he is happy to offload a couple.
I would love to buy one of his radios and get it setup to communicate with these ****ty KENWOOD TK-3170's and if my boss likes them enough he might replace them all together.
So what all do I need to get this done? Please be kind as I am brand new to all of this. I sincerely appreciate any help or advise given.
