The M1KE is our latest battery powered, handheld WLAN IP transceiver designed for both amateur radio and unlicensed use. Besides chatting with other M1KE users nearby, you can talk to people living on the other side of the world very easily.

The M1KE (pronounced “mike” like the beginning of the word “microphone”) integrates the functionality of a traditional digital transceiver (such as a DMR or other digital radio) with the capabilities of a hotspot device like the openSPOT4 Pro, all within a single, versatile tool. It is a fully standalone transceiver (not a hotspot) and goes far beyond the combined capabilities of a typical digital transceiver and hotspot, offering advanced features and exceptional ease of use.
