Compact enough to slip in your pocket or purse and you'll hardly notice it's there because it's so small and lightweight (approximately 250gm and 106mm height).

Simple Operation
Simply turn it on and push to talk. Adjust the volume knob to set a comfortable listening level. The monitor button allows you to listen for other users' activity. For added convenience, the two-colour LED indicator lights red for transmit and green for an active channel.

Die-Cast Chassis
Provides exceptional strength that, when combined with the rugged and sealed case design, enable the ZPRS01 to provide reliable use. The sealed design also helps to repel humidity, dust and light rain.

PRS Repeater capable for even more range!

To achieve an even greater range, a radio repeater can be used. This where a station communicates with the repeater, which in turn re-broadcasts the signal to other stations on the same channel. Usually a repeater is sited at some elevation, thereby offering a much greater ‘line-of site’ range. All repeaters must be available for use by the general public i.e. they cannot be ‘private’. A number of repeaters have been setup in various parts of NZ and Australia. This link kindly shows some NZ repeater sites.  http://zcat.wired.net.nz/radio/about/repeaters.php
There are 8 channels available in New Zealand for PRS repeater use.
With this transceiver, these 8 channels are numbered 41 through 48. E.g. In Tauranga, there is a PRS repeater on channel 2. To access it, you would select 42 with this transceiver.
