Dakota Alert MAT MURS Alert Transmitter

MURS stands for Multi-Use Radio Service. The MURS frequencies are permitted to transmit at a higher wattage than Family Radio Service devices, which gives them ten times(or more) the possible range of FRS devices.

MURS gives you tranmission distances of several miles and is highly recommended for applications where there are a lot of obstructions such as trees, buildings, etc…

This kit consists of the MURS Base Station Radio and the MURS Alert Transmitter.

The M538-BS is a base station MURS transceiver that will receive alert signals from the MURS Alertâ„¢ transmitter and also can be used for two way voice communications between other MURS transceivers. The BS has 5 channels and 38 sub channels to help you communicate with other users. The M538-BS is powered by a plug-in transformer. The BS is capable of communicating over distances of several miles*. The FCC also allows you to use MURS without a license. Although other radio services require a license, MURS is license free.
