00:00Top 5 POC Radios for Long-Range Communication
00:03So I went down a rabbit hole looking for the best POC radios you can buy right now,
00:08and the prices genuinely surprised me. The cheapest one on this list costs less than
00:13a drive-thru meal, and the most expensive is still under a couple hundred bucks.
00:18These are the 5 best long-range comms picks I found, let's walk through them.
00:22Starting at number 5, the Abri GP268. This one's a proper network walkie-talkie
00:294G with a SIM card, Zello for global POC talk, Android under the hood,
00:33plus Bluetooth, and even ham radio support. 4776 gets you a unit with 4,500 plus units
00:40already sold and a solid 4.6 star rating, which tells you people like using it.
00:45If you want real push-to-talk without holding your phone like a walkie-talkie at a construction site,
00:50this is the sweet spot. Number 4 is the Ksun ZL38 Global 4G Wi-Fi Radio.
00:57Here's the feature I like most, it's not just 4G, it's Wi-Fi too. So if you're on a job
01:03site with
01:03no signal but a hotspot or a router nearby, you still get Zello push-to-talk working.
01:09Bluetooth for your headset, Zello app compatible, and it comes in at $62.32.
01:14Slightly pricier than the ABBRE, but that 4G plus Wi-Fi combo is what separates it from the crowd.
01:21Number 3 is wild, because it's not even a radio, it's the Aniseku microphone for 4G network radios.
01:28Pop it into your Android phone and suddenly your phone works with Enrico T320,
01:33A420S, S100 and S200 POC handhelds. It turns a cheap smartphone into a proper
01:38shoulder mic 1826 for that kind of compatibility is almost silly, and with a 4.5 rating and over
01:444 is 000 sold, people clearly keep coming back for more. Number 2 is the ABBRE transparent TPU
01:51protective case for the Baofeng and One. I'm calling it my accessory pick of the year.
01:57Drop protection, dustproof, TPU material that stays flexible instead of cracking,
02:02and it's fully transparent so you can still see the screen and the buttons.
02:07$6.13 and it somehow has a perfect 5-star rating. Cheapest item on the list, easiest buy,
02:14zero brainpower required. Alright, that's my 5. All the links are down in the description,
02:21so go grab whichever one fits your budget. If this saved you time, hit like and subscribe,
02:26I'll keep digging for more comms gear worth your money. One quick heads up before you buy,
02:31POC radios ride cell towers and internet, so your actual range depends on coverage,
02:36not on hills. Drop a comment if you've tested these in the field and I'll reply.
