All Terrain
Radio Communication Built for Remote and Rugged Terrain
When your fleet leaves the highway, mobile phones stop working. Consumer CB radios from camping stores are not built for commercial operations. The housings crack, audio degrades under load, and you end up sharing frequencies with every other 4WD in the region.
Digicom Wireless supplies commercial-grade two-way radio systems for operators who work in genuine all terrain environments. Pastoral stations, exploration and survey fleets, field service vehicles, and land management agencies across Australia.
What Separates a Commercial Radio from a Consumer One
A commercial-grade radio running through a quality elevated-feed antenna will outperform a consumer handheld by a significant margin. Not because of the wattage rating on the box, but because of build quality, antenna efficiency, coaxial cable integrity, and how the radio is programmed.
All equipment supplied by Digicom Wireless is ACMA type-approved for use in Australia. We also manage commercial frequency licensing for operators who need to move off the 80 public CB channels onto private licensed spectrum.
UHF or VHF — Which Band for Your Terrain?
UHF penetrates scrub and structures better at close range. VHF travels further across open flat terrain with line of sight. Getting this wrong costs you range. We will help you choose the right band for your specific operation before you spend a dollar.
Repeater Systems for Property-Wide Coverage
Ridgelines and ranges break line of sight. A repeater at elevation relays transmissions across terrain that would otherwise have dead zones. We handle site assessment, equipment selection, and ACMA frequency coordination.
Simple Setup, Ready to Go
Our vehicle-mounted radios are supplied pre-programmed to your frequency plan and come with straightforward fitting guides. Most setups are straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic vehicle accessories. Need a hand with installation? We can point you in the right direction.

There are parts of Australia where even a well-installed VHF system with a repeater will not give you reliable coverage. Motorola WAVE PTX delivers push-to-talk communication over the 4G/5G network. The same PTT experience as a two-way radio, with national cellular coverage and no infrastructure for you to maintain.
WAVE PTX integrates with conventional radio infrastructure, so a cellular PTX user can talk directly to a radio user on the same system. It is the practical solution for remote vehicles that operate beyond your radio coverage footprint.
- Follows the national 4G/5G coverage footprint
- No radio infrastructure to install or maintain
- Integrates with existing conventional radio fleets
- GPS tracking and group call capability
- Runs on dedicated devices or existing smartphones
- Supplied as a Motorola Solutions Platinum partner
Who We Equip for All Terrain Operations
Commercial all terrain radio requirements vary significantly depending on the operation. Here is how we approach the most common ones.
Pastoral and Agricultural Operations
Vehicle-mounted VHF systems and portable radios for mustering, fencing, water infrastructure, and general station management across large properties. Repeater planning included where terrain demands it.
Exploration and Survey Fleets
Rugged portable and vehicle-mounted radios for geological survey, environmental monitoring, and exploration teams in remote terrain. WAVE PTX recommended as the long-range fallback where radio coverage ends.
Field Service and Maintenance Vehicles
Coordinating technicians across wide geographic areas where mobile coverage is patchy. GPS-enabled radios provide vehicle tracking alongside voice so dispatch always knows where the fleet is.
Land Management and Government Agencies
Parks, wildlife, local government, and land management organisations running personnel across remote areas. Lone worker alerting and man-down features for staff working in isolated locations.
Tag-Along Tour and Outdoor Event Operators
Short-term radio hire for guided tours, 4WD tag-alongs, and outdoor events. Pre-programmed commercial-grade units delivered ready to use with no capital purchase required for seasonal or one-off operations.
Radio Hire for Short-Term Field Deployments
Survey campaigns, seasonal operations, and short-term field deployments often need reliable communications for a defined period without the cost of a full purchase. Our hire fleet ships pre-programmed and ready to go.
