I want to start by saying that I know next to nothing about technical aspect of radios
At work we use professional Motorola radios but the problem is that we had some issues with our dealer and so therefore, we haven't gotten any new ones in FOREVER and they are all starting to break. It would be nice if I could just buy my own and bring it to work. I don't even know the models we have at work and I know next to nothing about 2-way radios. The ones we have look like the GP or MTX series. I can't even find a place online that sells these. All I can find is people selling the batteries for these radios.
Would I even be able to get ahold of that type of radio without dishing out an obnoxious amount of cash?
With that said, even if I was able to buy one, what would I have to do to get it programmed to listen/transmit my work's signal? Just know the frequencies and program them in? Thanks a lot and I apologize if this post is in the wrong area.
