Radio Comm Systems

 For our two way radio communication packages, we've combined top quality, Uniden and Kenwood consumer and commercial grade two-way radios with OTTO professional headsets already popular with police mounted patrols! These headsets are not readily available to consumers. They provide superior audio quality and fit very comfortably under a helmet.

Both of our systems allow for clear, comfortable, two way, long distance conversation while riding or working around the barn -- wherever you need to communicate.

We pre charge your batteries, install privacy codes and will custom set your radios to your liking; you may prefer them in push to talk or hands free VOX mode. Please feel free to call us for help in finding the right solution for your needs. And we are here to offer technical assistance should you need it!

All Eponaire Two-Way Radio Comm System kits include:

2 Professional headsets

2 two-way radios

2 rechargeable NIMH batteries with separate desktop chargers

2 nylon case belt attachments with a horizontal placement option

2 nylon belts

And a convenient, sturdy, cordura carrying pouch!

Our PRO PACKAGE includes two Kenwood Business UHF radios:

These rugged, attractive radios operate on UHF business channels and have an audio range of up to 5 miles. Excellent audio quality, a great set of radios with lots of options for customizing to suit your surroundings. Already a tried and true favorite radio in commercial settings (restaurants, retail, etc). Works great in VOX or hands free communication!

An in line mic is included on the headsets with this system, so if you prefer to use them in  push to talk mode versus VOX, you can just press a button on your headset to communicate.


* Die-cast aluminum chassis and polycarbonate case provide exceptional strength.

* 121 Quiet tones/Digital quiet talk codes reduce interference. We will pre set these for you!

*Vox capable (These radios work well in VOX!)

New! We now have other headset options to choose from! This set is a great option, a clear acoustic tube earphone. You may prefer this type of headset for a more discreet look or if either student or instructor does not wish to wear a headset with a mic. These loops stay very stable on your ear, and are popular with students. Same price as our standard headset, just write your preference in the comments box while ordering. Additional removable acoustic ear loops can be ordered for $8 each, allowing each student to have their own.

This headset is standard with the Pro One Way system, and is an option with the Kenwood Two Way system and the Comtek system.

All radios and headsets may be purchased separately if needed. You can even combine sets to suit your needs, call us for more information!

All components in both sets are covered by our extended two-year warranty.

If you order a two way radio system,  we pre charge the batteries and set the radios  with privacy codes (to eliminate interference ) for your convenience before we send them to you. You will be able to simply remove them from the box and put them in use! And we will preset them for you in either VOX or push to talk mode, just let us know how you plan to use them.

We are here to help with any technical issues you may have and encourage you to contact us, offering full support for any of your questions. But please be assured, these are really simple, easy systems to use!

And of course, like all Eponaire products, your satisfaction is guaranteed!

NEW!

We welcome Beverly Rogers, "S" judge and USDF Gold Medalist .
"The Uniden radios work very well in the push to talk mode, great for the rider with weekly lessons. And it worked well around the show grounds too", according to Bev. "I do love the Kenwood Pro system though for me. With multiple daily lessons the VOX works so well, and my students love the headset options!"

"I do appreciate your prompt service with
getting all this to me and if in any event you wanted to use me as a reference  
please do! I'm quite happy with the system, as I could
not have done my last two clincs without it and plan to use it on a daily
basis for my regular students."
Debbie Riehl Rodriguez

"We got the system yesterday and rode with it this morning! It is super! I really had no idea how much it would improve my lessons. What I did not realize is that every time the instructor spoke to me, I would strain to hear her and look directly at her. Of course, in the interim, my attention was completely off the horse and sometimes we'd fall apart. Today I rode my best ride on this horse, my attention was completely on him, and I never even knew where the instructor was! He was really big and the collection was super and I never lost him due to the comm system.? What a huge difference!
.Cheers and THANK YOU!  Maybe I will get up the levels with your help!"
