Buddy Phone Underwater Comms Unit
- Vendor: OTS
- Type: SCUBA Gear
The patented, US Navy-Approved MKII-BUD Buddy Phone transceiver has an acoustic underwater device originally designed for professional Search & Rescue Teams and is well known throughout the world as the highest quality underwater communications system available.
MKII-BUD uses ultrasonic upper single sideband for transmission. It comes complete with Push-to-talk button, a patented HotMic (studio-quality, water proof microphone) and the main transceiver.
How does it work? When the diver enters the water, it powers up and cycles to the receive mode—ready to receive a message. When the diver(s) want to transmit, they simply depress the PTT button located on the cover plate and talk. All divers and/or surface stations within range and on the same frequency will hear the message.
This units we have are only available for use with Interspiro’s AGA full-face mask.
