The device is a Retevis RA35 walkie-talkie, designed for two-way radio communication. It operates on the FRS (Family Radio Service) MHZ frequency band, offering 22 available radio channels. The device is compact and features an antenna, a PTT (Push-to-Talk) button, an On/Off button, DOWN/Mon (Monitor) button, a Menu/Lock button, a Lamp button, an UP/Scan button, a Mic (microphone), an LCD display, and a speaker. It is powered by 4 AAA alkaline or rechargeable batteries (not included).
The RA35 allows users to communicate over a range of up to 2 km in open fields, though this range can be affected by obstructions like hills or buildings. It supports CTCSS (Continuous Tone-Coded Squelch System) and DCS (Digital Coded Squelch) with 99 available sub-channels (38 CTCSS + 61 DCS) to prevent interference from other users on the same radio channel. The device includes a VOX (Voice Operated eXchange) function for hands-free operation, allowing transmission to be activated by voice or other sounds. A scanning feature helps find active radio channels. It also has a monitor function to listen for weak signals and a call tone feature with 10 selectable tones. A built-in flashlight provides utility for sending light signals or general illumination.
