Talk Across The World With These Radios!

[dataterminal]

If they made a 'homebase' version of this that could connect to the Global-PTT network via ethernet, it'd be a nice addition. For me though, as a mobile operator it'd not really much use if I already have my phone and other device. I think their main target is commercial use, and to be fair it looks like a much easier way to hand out radio gear to staff than setting up DMR and reprogramming them.

What happens if/when they turn off the servers in Singapore? We've seen this with IoT stuff before.

A device, OS and network agnostic platform like zello, that you can also use on a watch or POC device is a bit more appealing. No mention of encryption or security.

Love the variety of comms available to us for different applications. Great video

So your giving all this data to a Chinese company over a cell network. Are they storing any of the voice data? Do you have to type in serial numbers and then register each device to a user? Might be fun to play around with but not for SHTF stuff im assuming?

Having worked a few big events, (horse racing mainly) I would not trust having my staff coms over cellular. The networks are usually heavily loaded and sometimes overloaded particularly at key moments. Maybe it doesn't happen these days with better infrastructure but 10 years ago we constantly had issues with our mobile phones.

How does this service compare to what was offered by Nextel, when it was still a going concern quite a few years back? I recall they made their brand identity their "direct connect" feature, which also was a push-to-talk function on their cell phones. I don't know if Nextel serviced Europe.

Nice as always dude, have you seen the motorcycle 'intercoms' mate I'm curious as to what they use as it states a 1.2k range. 👍

These devices seem to make logical use of technology to solve one particular problem well. The thing that worries me, since the devices won’t work on Wi-Fi, how does one conclusively prove that the Chinese aren’t snooping users’ traffic?

[quentinbush]

How do you find people to speak to using Global PTT if you don't know anyone?

[CB-RADIO-UK]

Pity they are not WiFi. Ive no issue with Network radios and your channel was the first that i heard it from.

[Woddy-bdns]

Are there public talk groups or ways to find existing groups to join? Ie connect with like minded hobbyist?

[dustinandtarynwolfe]

We have global ptt for work. Its pretty rad. Super reliable and clear. Theyre pretty awesome. Ours are all simcards.

[Trust.theWord]

Thanks for this video. I’m interested in learning more about the POC phones and UHF combinations.

[carlossantini]

Thanks for the video, no dealers tell you that you can use a different sim card than Global Network.

[tannerjordan]

How much is the platform subscription fee

[NickBotha]

What are the monthly costs of this device?

[CMenzy]

Good vid global ptt similar to zello? And if poss do you have links for the handsets? I especially like the black one at rear

Looking forward to more vidz

[samsungtvu]

So if there is no reception these don't work.

[jakestian]

I need help! I just got the Linux wurui global ptt walkie talkies and I don't know how to connect them or anything. I've been trying to figure out how to use them for roughly an hour now andi don't know how to use them
