The spring season is here again. Sunny days are usually the favorite days for outdoor enthusiasts. Although the muddy rainy days and the severe cold in winter are the best times for outdoor athletes to hone their will, no matter what , the season when birds and flowers are fragrant is everyone’s favorite. When you step outdoors, there must be groups of hiking groups around you, and maybe you are one of them. I am an outdoor mountain bike sports enthusiast, and I am also an amateur radio sports enthusiast. I have been fond of handheld radios (walkie-talkies) for more than 30 years. Since I assembled the first 27M wireless handheld by myself, walkie-talkies have always played an important part in my spare time. Today we’ll take a look at this compact walkie-talkie—JiBee Ultra-Thin Walkie-Talkie A306.

We are no strangers to the JiFeng brand. We have used several models of walkie-talkies from this brand before. This time, the A306 ultra-thin walkie-talkie is almost the same in size and appearance as the A308 I am currently using. While retaining many special functions, it has canceled the LED dot matrix display and FM radio functions, and the price is also the same. It is much lower, providing users with one more choice. From the parameter point of view, the transceiver frequency of JiFeng ultra-thin walkie-talkie A306 is UHF mid-band 430MHz-440MHz, but in fact, the settable frequency range is 400-470MHz, which greatly improves the playability of this machine and is not only suitable for outdoor use Sports people, it is also applicable in some professional fields. For example, hotels, construction sites, sports event organizations, corporate security and other environments.

The transmitting power of JiFeng ultra-thin walkie-talkie A306 reaches 4W, which is a relatively large transmitting power among small-volume walkie-talkies. Usually the transmitting power of a handheld station (walkie-talkie) is between 2-7W. The greater the power, the smaller the volume. The bigger the phone is, the more power it consumes. The ultra-thin design of the Ultra-Thin Walkie Talkie A306 can reach 4W of transmission power due to its unique heat dissipation design and the use of a 2190mAh lithium polymer battery. The whole machine weighs only 137 grams, which is lighter. The weight of outdoor gear.

Regarding the communication distance that everyone is most concerned about, we passed the outdoor test. I communicated in the wild while cycling, and the communication distance of the walkie-talkie was clear and the distance was more than 10 kilometers. We know that the communication distance of a walkie-talkie is not only affected by the design of the machine itself, but also related to the geographical environment and propagation conditions. JiBee ultra-thin walkie-talkie A306 uses a non-detachable whip antenna. If it is replaced with a more efficient antenna, I believe the distance can be increased. However, this design should be related to current laws and regulations. We will discuss this issue later.

The detachable back clip increases the convenience of carrying. The bottom of the antenna is designed with grouped color rings. The channel adjustment uses a wave switch. The PTT button, power switch , and volume switch are distributed on both sides of the fuselage. The dual Bluetooth design can be connected to the mobile phone APP through Bluetooth for frequency setting and various status settings, and can also be connected to the Bluetooth headset to achieve hands-free function, while retaining the 3.5mm wired headphone jack.

The headphone and charging interface are on the right side of the fuselage, covered with a waterproof plastic cover. It uses the currently popular Type-C interface. It can achieve 110 hours of standby time after being fully charged. It can be charged with an ordinary mobile phone charging head and a power bank can be used outdoors. Perform power replenishment.

The body thickness is only 16mm, and the appearance is ergonomically designed, making it more comfortable to hold.

Due to the non-display design, users can obtain the current status of the walkie-talkie through voice broadcast, such as channel number, power, configuration information, etc. There is only a three-color LED indicator light on the front to display power, transmission, reception and charging status. The 36mm large-diameter speaker is combined with compand-spectrum noise reduction technology to ensure clear phone calls. The most important thing is that JiFeng ultra-thin walkie-talkie A306 has mobile phone APP frequency writing and over-the-air frequency copying functions. It is very convenient for industry applications and can quickly initiate team formation during outdoor sports.

A walkie-talkie is a special communication device. The state stipulates that the use of walkie-talkies requires a radio station license. This is the reason why radio communication enthusiasts have been in a niche status for a long time, until relevant policies allowed the use of the 409 license-free frequency band. Later, walkie-talkies were allowed to be used without a license under certain conditions. One of the adjustments was that the antenna was a fixed antenna. I think the non-detachable antenna of the JiBee ultra-thin walkie-talkie A306 may be related to this reason. We bought the JiBee ultra-thin With the A306 walkie-talkie, as long as the frequency is set to the license-free band 409, it can be used legally without worrying about interfering with other radio stations.

After downloading the APP, connect it to your mobile phone via Bluetooth, add the Ultra-Thin Walkie Talkie A306 in the APP, and then set the frequency through the APP. A set of 20 channels has been preset inside, and it can be put into use without setting the frequency. , for professional users, you can use custom channels for frequency setting, support transceiver frequency, digital sub-tone and analog sub-tone, and can be used in relay networks.

Compared with the previous A308, it lacks the LED dot matrix display and FM receiving function. During use, it displays the status through voice broadcast and a three-color LED indicator. For outdoor use, it saves part of the power. At the same time The price has been reduced, making it more economical.

During the outdoor outing season, taking such a walkie-talkie with you is much more efficient than a mobile phone when communicating. Especially in an environment without operator network coverage in the wild, the walkie-talkie can keep in touch. If everyone has one, they can report information with them at outdoor sports events. safer.

The advantage of the walkie-talkie is that it does not require the support of a communication operator. It can respond to a hundred calls and has high call efficiency. It can be used for one-to-one or one-to-many group calls. Especially in emergency situations, the networking method of the walkie-talkie determines its efficiency. And fast, in extraordinary moments, it can do things that mobile phones cannot.

For home users, it can be used in outdoor adventures, outings, outdoor extreme sports and other environments. It is very practical for everyone to have one when traveling. It brings a lot of fun during the journey. It is also suitable for industry users such as hotels, restaurants, For wharf and community property management, frequency writing can be done over the air at one time, simplifying the setup process.

JiFeng A306 walkie-talkie has very practical functions for ordinary users and is enough to cope with all amateur use environments and industrial users. As for radio sports, I still look forward to the emergence of a dual-stage dual-mode (VHF/UHF/public network) walkie-talkie, which will bring more fun to my amateur life.
