Expert advice on prs and 2-way radios

The key to getting the right 2-way radio for your requirements is to understand the main differences between models you are comparing, and how these relate with how and where you are going to use them.

Walkie Talkie’s managing director Owen is one of the leading 2-way radio specialists in New Zealand. Owen can advise on which features will make a difference to the performance of the portable radios used in different circumstances – whether there is line of site between operators or if there are buildings or geographical features to consider, and the distance between points. Other factors to consider are the weather conditions, proximity to areas of congestion in airwave activity and operational demands like required battery life and concentration of usage (periodical or constant).

Owen and his team are available to go through all this with you to ensure you receive the best fit for your needs.

From Rexon to Walkie Talkie – bringing brand diversity to a supplier of quality 2-way radio

From Rexon to Wolfsin – Evolving Professional Two-Way Radio Solutions in New Zealand

Owen was instrumental in introducing the Rexon handheld and portable radio range to New Zealand in 2007, with a clear focus on delivering dependable communication equipment suitable for both recreational and professional use at accessible price points.

“I started with the Rexon range because it met my criteria of offering reliable products across a broad range of applications, while remaining cost-effective at each level of use.”

From entry-level walkie talkies through to higher-performance commercial radios, the focus was always on consistent signal performance, clear audio, and robust build quality — equipment reliable enough to be confidently recommended across demanding environments.

A key requirement was ensuring suitability for New Zealand’s challenging operating conditions. Whether used in hunting, farming, security, construction, events, or commercial operations, the equipment needed to deliver dependable performance, durability, and practical functionality without compromising affordability.

Building on this foundation, Wolfsin has continued to develop and refine this approach, establishing itself as a specialist supplier of professional-grade communication solutions. Wolfsin invests significant time each year in product testing and evaluation, focusing on real-world performance, durability, audio clarity, battery efficiency, and user-focused design improvements..
