It’s like a normal radio but connected to the internet so there’s basically infinite range and because phones have internet as well they made an app for them I guess
So tell me where I am wrong or confused. The radio has a phone sim in it with data enabled connected to the 3/4g network. You can then use your mobile phone to talk out of the radio remotely via the internet. Is this correct?
Is there any device you can connect a computer into your repeater (between interface cable). I got my zello channel linked to my repeater, but I`m using a portable radio. I would like to not use that portable radio.
My thing is. HOw would I use just my HT and/or mobile unit while I am driving around out of range of the actual repeater but still be able to transmit/receive via Zello without actually using my phone to transmit/receive ? I want to use my radio equipment to where I could PTT and transmit/receive with the assistance of Zello to extend range. Is that possible? I hope i've made sense - this can all get a little confusing.
Venerable Flores I have an existing radio network using vhf and uhf bands. And I am planning to add this PoC LTE radio to my network. Can you suggest how can I integrate my analog radio network to that PoC LTE radios.

This video fails to get to the substance. Everyone knows what a transceiver is. Everyone knows what Zello is. The UNKNOWN, is what sort of phone or device can run Zello, and how is it powered. This scenario has no power supply. The radio and the "phone" will run out of power and go off. There is no mention or chart of the connections, which can be converted to any other radio. In a nutshell, this video is nuts.
Not really. The phone is on a wireless charger. Fine. The iCom is on a fixed charging cradle.... though using the iCom while charging will damage the battery long term.
What sort of cheap phone can do this? My phones don't even have a headset plug. I think you said Galaxy Samsung 9 These a bit expensive for a spare phone.
You can use Zello on the computer and just run a 3.5 mono cable from the computer mic port to the radio speaker port Works great and vox works fine on the computer.
Yeah we have Sydney repeater s channels on Zello too U can listen to syd07 Sydney repeater and 03 and 43 are all on Zello yr welcome to come on board and listen to UHF CB radio Sydney repeaters
Hi, dou you hava a product link to where we can buy those zello accessories for cross linking ie; The wire plug and if theres anything else needed in order to crosslink the analog radio to zello. Thanks in advance..
I only had to make a special lead because it was an Icom radio. Most other radios you can use something off the shelf. I've tried this with a TYT MD-380 DMR/Analog radio without the little VOX box on the lead and it works fine.
Hello sir! Ok here’s my situation! I hope your expertise can help me out here? I use spirit box apps from iOS and the App Store, now some very crude individuals in my town are using this kinda walkie talkie apps to be the akA the DEAD I thought I was speaking to as a hobby!! Total let down by the way, and sad that they would do this! My question since I’m not technically inclined is how can I pinpoint where their signal is coming from using IDX AND QRZ IN MY IPHONE TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS? Like what kinda codes, call signs, frequencies etc would I need to know how their using walkie talkie app such as Zello,or any other cb radio type app I haven’t pinned down yet that their using? My call to the FCC IS NEXT! But if you wouldn’t mind explaining some of the things that I’d need to know quickly to try and figure this out on my own, without involvement of the federal government! Anything you could suggesting would be helpful I can send my private number if needed, and even pay ya to help me out here on this issue I’m having!! Thanks God bless
Be friends with them and do what they do for a while and then try to make gathering. When you come face to face knock his ass down and make sure his chin will never look same again and be careful
Who is interested in ACMA or what frequency it is on? Your "Activation" is for the AUDIO from the radio to Zello. You failed to show the audio from ZELLO to the radio and how, the Transmitter is turned on. Then at 3:35 we see that you are cheating, that the 491 Mhz Radio is actually using its own VOX.... Another uselss ROIP video that should be removed. It fails to show the basic elements. I get sick of hearing about the Galaxy phone, the lighting you failed to check, the Frequency you use or the radio authority or your licence that you seem to be obsessed with.
Not sure what your point is? I'm not trying to sell the thing, just showing people that it can be done! I mentioned the commercial frequency I'm using is ACMA licenced....... firstly, because it actually is, and secondly, I was hoping it will stop the clowns out there like yourself from whinging about it being used on an illegal frequency! There's always one absolute TOOL out there that chooses to waste their time by commenting on videos with some stupid remark or opinion - sadly this time you were the only TOOL that felt the need to do this! What I normally do if I think someones RU-vid video is crap is MOVE ON to another video and not waste my time bagging them out! I suggest you use your time more productively and worry about things that are actually worth worrying about! And that 3" wide stick that's jammed up your arse, well I suggest getting someone to pull it out for you.........maybe you might smile a bit more if its gone! God bless your charming soul xoxoxoxoxoxo :)
This video only refers to a hand held radio with an inbuilt VOX. This is the typical moron's set up. The reality is most people will want to use a mobile radio that does not have an inbuilt vox. Its getting that VOX circuit working with audio isolation, and more importantly power isolation to prevent AC hum getting into the system. VK3FTOM, yes, I have a ham call. I don't put it on youtube.
Wait i dont get it. You are connecting LINE OUT to MIC IN. How does this even work? Dont you need a DI box to attenuate the signal? I wonder if I could jerryrig a downconverted signal to the mic-in 2.5mm plug on the iCOM.
Won't it burn the radio out to stay on the charger? I'm a ham of 14 years. I've done this, and I like it. The problem is, I really don't like my town or the people in it. I do plan on moving ASAP, but I'm not very community oriented. The reason I might do this up now is to put the local electric company frequency in, and then anyone listening on Zello would know where they are when there's a power outage.
Hey, I came to the same cross link idea, tried to build it myself, but can't get it working. I think, the problem is, that 3.5 jack has only one GND, and the other end of my cable - Kenwood 2 pin connector has two separate grounds, one for the headphone and one for the mic. So, my walkie talkie is activating itself via vox and never stops transmitting. Or I might be wrong. It would be great to take a look at your wiring scheme.
Yes. For example, you could have 2 x radio users and 1 x Zello user on the same "network". The two radios could talk direct to each other, whilst the Zello user listens to both transmissions. The Zello user could also talk to either of the radio users.
So let’s say I have one Motorola radio VHF and I’m on one side of the city, and my friend has the same radios on the other side of the city, say 10 miles... if we have this hooked up this way would those radios work and cover the distance? Just trying to understand before I attempt it.
I've already set up some Zello channels but getting people to download the free Zello app & join up has been hard! Zello is massively popular in the US, UK & Asia but Aussies seem to have trouble grasping the concept for some reason! I use Zello almost every day, all day while I'm on the road for work! I talk to truckie mates in the UK as they're driving through the night & the free app works like a treat! Much like CB radio, we have up 9 or 10 people on the channel at any one time & the good thing with Zello is that you can boot someone from the channel if they play up (cant do that on a CB!) My UK mates no longer have CB radios in their trucks, they all use Zello instead! It gives them unlimited range from one end of the country to the other! You can listen to FRNSW & ASNSW "radio scanners" via Zello & there are also UHF CB repeaters operating on Zello (ch 7 Brisbane & ch 3/7 Sydney - you can get authorised to use your phone to transmit on the ch 7 Brisbane repeater). Best part is I can mute a channel whilst the app still records all transmissions on my phone so I can go back & listen at my leisure! There are Aus Alert channels already setup on Zello along with a 4WD Recoveries Australia channel + loads more. Problem is hardly anyone in Oz uses Zello so theres basically no people on these channels making them useless. The more people that join these channels, the better they will be & the more information that will be passed around. Zello is such a powerful communications tool & it's free! Forget trying to read Facebook posts for road closures etc whilst you're driving, just talk & listen via Zello! Aussies are really missing out if they're not using this app!
Fleet Signal Solutions Pty Ltd I just downloaded the app after seeing this video, and I agree there is a lack of Aussie activity on there. I would love to be apart of a group like this one in the video, coordinating efforts between authorities and the public.
@ Trent Moore....on Zello, to get you started search up the following channels; 4WD Recoveries Australia, AUS Alerts 21 & 41, ASNSW NR Crosslink, Fire Rescue NSW Australia Crosslink, Network Radios CH 00, Syd03 repeater, Portland Maine Police Dispatch, Crowdsource Rescue, Cajun Navy just to name a few. These will give you an idea of what Zello is capable of! You can also look me up as username "Mudguts 1973" & add me as a contact. I can talk you through a few things if need be!
