PMR or Private Mobile Radio is the original two-way
radio dating from 1947 when the first system was licensed by the then G.P.O.
At first it was used principally by the police, fire brigade and other official bodies.
These day's it's use has extended throughout industry and it is used wherever immediate communication is required. It can be tailored to either cover small areas, such as building sites or department stores where handportables are often used, or large 30 mile radius systems for use by taxis, refuse trucks etc, using vehicle mounted equipment or motorcycle couriers and traffic wardens using handportables.


It's main benefits over other forms of wireless communications are:
1. It is instant - there are no call set up delays, instead of dialling a number and waiting, one oosimply has to push the button to talk - this immediacy is often vital, for instance, when used ooby security guards and where safety is concerned.

2. One can talk to many users at the same time, therefore the controller of a taxi fleet or the ooco-ordinator of a large leisure event can broadcast messages to all of their operatives oo
simultaneously.

3. It is very flexible and can be used in most environments. It can be found in airports, around oocities, on the Underground, in mines and on oil rigs. It is even used by NASA in space.

London Communications Plc have been pre-eminent in PMR for nearly 30 years. We employ a team of experts to advise on and design PMR systems to suit each individual requirement from very simple to extremely complex multi-site operations.
