Custom Analog Programming
The TC-508 is a highly capable analog device that needs to be properly configured to avoid cross-talk.
Our technicians utilize the PC Programmable software to custom-tune your CTCSS/CDCSS settings and Selectable Squelch Levels, ensuring your channels remain completely private and free of interference from neighboring businesses.
Vehicle & Field Charging
When your team is operating in the field or on a large construction site, returning to a wall outlet isn't always an option.
We can supply the optional CHV09 Vehicle Power Adapters, ensuring your fleet maintains its 14-hour battery life even when managing operations directly from work trucks or machinery.
Heavy-Duty Accessory Matching
An exceptionally strong radio body deserves accessories that can withstand the same harsh conditions. For construction and manufacturing teams, we pair the TC-508 with rugged accessories like the SM26M1 or SM08M3 Remote Speaker Microphones, allowing your workers to communicate clearly while keeping the radio securely fastened to their belts.
Fleet-Wide Cloning
Deploying a large batch of new analog radios across a sprawling facility or school district shouldn't require days of manual setup.
Teltra takes advantage of the TC-508's Wired Clone capability. We create a master codeplug with your exact High/Low Power, Wide/Narrow Band, and TOT settings, and instantly clone it across your entire order for guaranteed uniformity.
