Comms Across Land With No Infrastructure
Farms are the opposite of offices: kilometers of open land, seasonal crews, no repeaters on the fence line. Radios and vehicle mobiles carry the whole operation.
What Breaks Without Radios
Fields run kilometers — handheld power alone fades at the far fence; mobiles and external antennas close it.
Harvest triples headcount for weeks — license-free classes and crate-deployed clones keep it legal and simple.
Operators live in cabs — mobile radios with glove-friendly controls do the talking.
The Setup That Works
| Role | Radio / gear | Why it earns its slot |
|---|---|---|
| Field crews | GMRS / license-free handhelds | License-class to market; crate clones for harvest crews. |
| Tractors & harvesters | Mobile radios | Cab-mounted, external antenna, glove-friendly. |
| Far-fence reach | External antennas | Base and mobile antennas lift the whole grid. |
| Multi-farm coordination | PoC 4G | Fields across counties on one talk group. |
Coverage & expansion: Mobiles + antennas cover the land grid; PoC ties separate farms into one channel. Every setup ships pre-programmed to your site plan — grow from one fleet to mixed fleets in the same RFQ.
Typical Deployment
A 2,000-hectare operation typically runs: 25 handhelds for field crews, 12 mobiles in cabs, external antennas on the barn and silo, 6 PoC units linking a second farm 40 km away.
One channel from barn to far fence.
