Under BOS handheld radio or walkie-talkie or handheld radio (usually with HFuG abbreviated) is defined as a radio that has an independent power supply and is designed so that it can be transported by one person and operated in hand. It is the opposite of the station radios , which are used as vehicle radio stations (see: mobile radio devices ), land radio stations and relay radio stations .

In the emergency service within the be bad radio several handheld radios used. Above all, these enable the operation center radio and, to a certain extent, also the vehicle and control center radio . As FuG is Germany a Fu nk G et up instrument referred specifically one based on performance specification of an authority is built.

operation area

In the area of authorities and organizations with security tasks , it is mainly used by patrol cars of the police and the fire brigade (there usually in the 2-meter band ) or by the rescue service (in the 4-meter band ) when the scene of action is further away from the vehicle or several units have to be coordinated with the help of a control center on site or an operations manager .

The 2 m handheld radios (HFuG) are used for communication at the point of use, that is, in a limited space. 4 m tapes are used to communicate with the control center. The existing HFuG are distributed in key positions, such as in the event of a fire: one HFuG for the head of operations, one HFuG with the attack team, one HFuG with the machinist or respiratory protection monitoring , depending on the availability and the situation: further teams. In the case of other types of deployment, such as floods, the HFuG are distributed to the various deployment locations.

FuG 10

The FuG 10 is a radio device for the 2 m band with ten programmed radio channels. It is usually only for the intercom operation suitable (only from Bosch FuG 10 were also offered for intercom and for mixed operation suitable variants) and has 1  Watt transmit power. For the FuG10 there is a 40 cm long rod antenna and a 15 cm long antenna that is electrically lengthened by coiling . The latter, however, has significantly poorer radiation properties than the rod antenna, but is more handy. The operating time is four hours.

FuG 10a

The FuG 10a is a multi-channel radio device for 92 channels in the 2 m range. An acoustic warning signal is given on channels that are adjustable but blocked. Both the belt position and the type of traffic can be switched. Two-way communication and conditional two-way communication are possible. The radio has a transmission power of 1 watt and an operating time of at least 4.5 hours.

FuG 10b

The FuG 10b corresponds to the FuG10a, but can be operated with a higher transmission power and equipped with FMS or other additional functions.

FuG 11b

The FuG 11b has been a new generation of handheld radios for the 2 m band since 1994. As a multi-channel device, all 117 channels in the 2 m range can be switched in both the upper and lower bands. It can be operated in alternating and conditional two-way communication. However, through appropriate programming, the number of switchable channels can also be limited to a specific selection. The device has a transmission power of 1 watt and no longer has a defined user interface. That is why there are numerous, very different models of the FuG 11b that are operated in completely different ways.

FuG 13

The FuG 13 has ten programmed channels for the 4 m range and a transmission power of 1 watt. It is suitable for two-way communication and conditional two-way communication and was mainly used for special purposes. Its structure is adapted to that of the FuG10.

FuG 13a

The FuG 13a is a multi-channel 4 m radio device. With a transmission power of 1 watt, it can be used in both the lower and upper bands for two-way communication and conditional two-way communication. Externally, it is largely adapted to the FuG 10a. In some federal states, the possession and operation of 4-meter handheld radios is reserved for city ​​or community firefighters and district fire inspectors .

FuG 13b

The FuG 13b corresponds to the FuG 13a, but can also be operated with a higher transmission power and be equipped with an alarm transmitter , FMS or other additional functions.

Digital radios

In Germany, too, BOS uses TETRA -HFuG, which are much more complicated to operate than the devices mentioned above, but are also more versatile.
