Golf Course Radios

Golf courses — there are a lot of them, and they come in many different shapes and sizes. Golf course owners and managers know that each course has its own particular set of problems and challenges that are dealt with on a daily basis. Those challenges range from operating the sprinkler systems and making sure players keep up with the pace of play, to managing the pro-shop and restaurant side of things — and everything in between. Because each course is unique, we recommend a variety of different radios to manage daily operations.

Operations: (Course management)

Our first recommendation is the Motorola CP100D. This is an introduction radio to the MOTOTRBO line of radios and will cover your course for any communication needs. It will cover nearly any size course. This 4- watt Digital/UHF future-proofs your course for the foreseeable future’s communication needs.

Our next recommendations for operations is either the 4 watt analog Analog version of the CP100D or the Kenwood NX-P1300AUK. These radios are perfect for simple communication around smaller 9-18 hole courses and should close the gap for nearly any communication hazard.

For much smaller (9 hole only) courses, you might not need the power of a 4-5 watt UHF or Digital radio, so we then recommend either the 2 watt RMU2080, or the Kenwood NX-P1302AUK

If you need extra range on a larger course, we may recommend adding a repeater like the Blackbox Flex or Ritron Liberty.

Retail: (Bar/Grill, Pro-Shop management)

Bar and grill, and pro-shop management has its own unique set of issues as well — making sure customers are happy with the food, drinks, or the service in the pro-shop — each presenting their own challenges.

First we recommend the Motorola CLS1410. This 1 watt, 4-channel walkie talkie is compatible with any UHF radio including the digital CP100D (when used on analog only frequencies.) This small-in-size two-way is great to communicate among staff working the kitchen, servers taking orders, and pro-shop attendants to radio down to get clubs brought up or delivered back to their homes in storage.

The second radio we recommend — when not needed to communicate with course management — is the Kenwood PKT300. This is a 2-watt radio that is perfectly sized for a proshop and can even communicate with other UHF radios. These are a phenomenal addition to any course for consistent communication in retail operations.
