The hand held radio or walkie talkie is used as a backup
for most people. Unlike the telephone or internet the radio works without
having to rely or power. Although batteries are used to power them, communication
can be executed if the power goes out, the telephone is not working, or a disaster
has occurred. For around $100 a quality walkie talkie can be purchased that can
be used to communicate over several miles. This a what I consider to be a
steadfast media foundation. This form of communication can save lives and I encourage
everyone to have a set in their home.
Many people have used a radio and probably have not even realized
it. Most parents anyway. A baby monitor operates on radio frequency and
transmits sound. Although most monitors only transmit one direction they are
still considered a hand held radio. This would not have been possible without
the initial application that Hings designed. Now baby monitors with video are available.
