GME, a Sydney-based communication and safety company, has launched a new wireless push-to-talk UHF CB radio accessory, XRS-BT1.
The device is designed for use within professional and recreational vehicles and is intended to provide a new and improved way for Australians to stay connected, GME said in a media release.
XRS-BT1 is the latest addition to GME’s portfolio of RF communication devices and can be connected to various Bluetooth accessories, such as headphones and vehicle stereo systems, enabling high-quality audio for users.
XRS-BT1 also uses Bluetooth connection between UHF CB radios and compatible hearing aids, enabling users with hearing impairment to be able to discern radio transmissions without any interference.
The device features a Push-to-Talk button that allows drivers to use their UHF CB radio while navigating difficult driving conditions or rougher terrain, enabling them to keep both hands on the wheel.
The XRS-BT1 kit includes various accessories, such as a dash mounting option and a wired microphone for truckies or farmers who need quick, hands-free communication on the go.
“We’re proud to introduce yet another market-leading product to help keep Aussies safe when they’re travelling out on the roads or in rural areas. Customers can now talk on their UHF radio while driving, without even needing to pick up the microphone,” said Tony Crooke, head of marketing and product at GME.
“Safety and quality is our passion, and like all of our products before it – the XRS-BT1 has undergone rigorous testing to ensure years of reliable performance in harsh Australian conditions.”
