Radio Transceiver

Overview

Radio Radio transceivers are the citizens main tool for in-game communication. Active radio chatter allows the citizens to plan strategies, request supplies, or call for assistance. Hooking Up To hook up a radio, citizens must first drop the item from their inventory. When the radio is on the ground, citizens can open the drop down menu and select the 'hook up' command.

Frequencies

Radios may be tuned to between 26.00 MHz and 27.99 MHz, but only engineers with the radio operator license skill may tune to below 26.96 MHz or above 27.40 MHz. Radios start tuned to 27.22 MHz as a default, and as such, this frequency is used for most citizen communication.
