The application and practice of digital tube technology in commercial radio walkie talkie
This comes from one of our American customers' praise of our Retevis RT50 radio, As a senior participant and manager of the racing market.

Tom Mayer commented on RT50's digital tube technology as beolw：
“The digital tube display on your RT50 is genius! We didn't even know
such a thing existed. I don't know how you do it, but that looks to be
the ideal way to include a display for this project, and your RT50
display shows most of what we would like (it includes DMR we do not
need, but does not show CTCSS/DCS code that we would like). ”
We have been discussing a handheld walkie talkie suitable for the low-cost racing market.
In the discussion, we talked about the practicality of digital tube technology on RT50 walkie-talkies and the duplication of ideas. We applied this technology to Retevis RT27V MURS walkie-talkies. On the basis of the original walkie-talkie shell mold, in the position of adding the digital tube, The panel is polished thin so that it can display the channel, power and other information that needs to be displayed, without affecting the overall appearance and function, just adding a current display, but not the display of the screen.
Digital tube, also known as Nixie tube, glow tube, is an electronic device that can display numbers and other information.
The nixie tube is a semiconductor light-emitting device, and its basic unit is a light-emitting diode. The glass tube includes an anode made of wire mesh and multiple cathodes. The cathode shape of most digital tubes is a number. The tube is filled with low-pressure gas, usually mostly neon plus some mercury and/or argon. Charge a certain cathode, the digital tube will emit color light, depending on the gas in the tube, generally orange or green.
According to our research, the general staff will choose walkie-talkies without screens for commercial use.
Price is one of them. Walkie-talkies with display screens are generally more expensive than walkie-talkies without screens. In addition, walkie-talkies with buttons and display screens are easy to arouse the curiosity of users and have more attached functions. It will cause inconvenience in use, such as accidental touch. On the other hand, it will reduce work efficiency.
However, walkie-talkies without any display will also cause confusion to users.
For example, you need to turn the knob and turn on the sound to know the current channel. If there are many channels involved, it will be a troublesome thing to find a channel. Retevis radio solution applies digital tube technology to walkie-talkies. Through a special design, walkie-talkies without a display can realize some necessary functions at a lower cost, such as power display, channel display, etc. The displayed content depends on For your needs, don’t forget, we support customization.
Application of digital tube technology in commercial radio walkie talkie
Take Retevis RT50 walkie-talkie as an example. Through the application of digital tube technology, the walkie-talkie can display Retevis RT50's DMR VOX SCAN and other functions at the moment it is turned on. After two seconds, it will display the normal number of channels and power.

After the application of digital tube technology in commercial radio walkie talkie Retevis RT50, the commercial walkie talkie not only has the basic display function, but also does not affect the overall design. The most important thing is that the cost of this design method is relatively low. This genius design makes the efficiency of the commercial walkie-talkie to a higher level.
Retevis Radio solutions has been committed to the application and promotion of digital tube technology. If you have any ideas and suggestions, please feel free to contact us: info@retevissolutions.com.
