Coverage always depends on your location and the surrounding infrastructure. Indoor coverage is affected by a building's construction; outdoor coverage is affected by terrain and foliage — hills can dramatically affect communications. Repeaters can extend coverage over larger areas, and city-wide coverage is available using LTE data networks on our USA600 radio. Call 1-888-660-5029 if you'd like help choosing a model.

We primarily use Motorola two-way radios, along with lower-cost privately branded models.
The majority of our radios have 16 channels. Digital radios can be programmed with up to 32 channels.
Yes — at no additional charge. We can create private channels within your radio group (for example, a private finance channel for a festival) and program radios to work with your existing UHF repeater.
Speaker microphones, lightweight headsets, two-wire surveillance kits, and high-noise single and double muff headsets. See the accessories section for details.
Spare batteries (typically 40–50% of your total radio count) and charging stations are included free, along with custom programming and radio labeling. If you anticipate needing additional spares, just note it in your quote request.
A repeater is equipment that extends radio coverage — your radios talk to the repeater, which relays the signal to the rest of the group. Placement is crucial: multi-story buildings and sites with hills or foliage are covered best when the repeater sits in a central location at the highest point possible.
No. USA Radio Rentals is licensed through the FCC with nationwide frequencies that come already programmed into your radios.
Payment terms are determined at the discretion of USA Radio Rentals and noted on your rental contract. The authorized card on file is charged before shipment. Within 24–48 hours of receiving your return shipment (excluding weekends and holidays), the remaining refund amount is submitted to your card. Your Account Manager will email a final invoice noting the rental amount and refund submitted.
Charges appear on your statement as "Valley Wide Communications." Call 1-888-660-5029 with the transaction date and amount and we'll help. Please call and speak with a manager before making a claim with your card company — invoices and receipts are easy to provide, but once a claim is filed it's difficult for us to honor any discretionary refunds.
