Recommendations

For reliable communication, assign dedicated channels to different teams or functions and perform a quick channel scan on arrival to identify the least congested channel. Use brief, structured messages and confirm receipt to reduce repeated transmissions. If operating in built-up or metal-rich environments, expect reduced range and consider closer positioning of team members or additional relay points.
