OXBOW GEAR LLC Renegade X Two-Way Radio with Bluetooth and Universal Shoulder Mount

Ever wish you could have a two-way radio that could pair with your favorite headphones, earbuds or helmet intercom system for true wireless communication system? Now you can with the Renegade X radio. The Renegade X has a built-in Bluetooth chip that will allow you to pair with your favorite listening device while still transmitting in two-way radio frequencies. Why would you want to pair a helmet intercom with a two-way radio instead of talking intercom to intercom? Because Bluetooth radio waves have a very short range and have connectivity issues as you get further away or out of line-of-site. Two-way radio waves travel much further and will never get disconnected from each other. By pairing your helmet intercom with the Renegade X, you get the best of both worlds, the convenience of a helmet intercom with the range of a two-way radio. The Renegade X comes with our patent pending mounting system to securely attach the radio to any backpack shoulder strap. The license free Renegade X radio has 22 channels with 121 sub-channels. The removable lithium ion battery and power saver technology provides for 36+ hours of use. Transmitting at the U.S. legal limit of 2 watts, the radio has line-of-site range of 25 miles and a backcountry range of 1-5 miles. The radio also has a VOX (voice activation) function as well as a “future” remote PTT button pairing mode (stay tuned).

With 22 channels and 121 sub-channels, it operates within the FRS frequency range, offering compatibility with industry-standard snowmobile radios and private communication channels.
Transmitting at the U.S. legal limit of 2 watts, the Renegade X provides an impressive line-of-sight range of up to 25 miles, with typical backcountry distances between 1 to 5 miles depending on terrain and obstacles.
