Practical Features for Every Family Adventure
With a range of up to 20 miles1, the compact EM1000R two-way radios are ideal for family emergency kits.

The radios also feature a built-in LED flashlight for unexpected weather emergencies and power outages, an emergency checklist and access to
seven National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and four Environment Canada (EC) weather channels, which provide continuous broadcasts of local and regional weather updates.2

Convenient Communication with Clear Connections
During winter ski outings, families can enjoy the convenience of hands-free communication with the iVOX speech-activated feature. The EM1000R also has flexible charging options for ultimate mobility. Families can choose to charge in the standard, dual drop-in charger or use the mini-USB port in the radio to charge with the included mini-USB car charger, which is especially useful during long road trips. And, for remote adventures, double-A alkaline batteries are ideal for a quick recharge when no power is available.
