How the Retevis RT97 Repeater Saved Our Hunting Trip: A Real-Life Customer Story

At Retevis, we believe in the power of real-life experiences. Sometimes, it's not just about selling a product—it's about how that product can make a tangible difference in people's lives. Today, we want to share an incredible real-life story from one of our customers who used the Retevis RT97 Full Duplex Repeater during a hunting trip in a remote area.

The Importance of Communication in Remote Areas

On our hunting trip, we set up camp in a remote area surrounded by valleys, ravines, and dense forest. These locations are ideal for hunting but are notoriously difficult to communicate from due to the rough terrain. We had to place our Retevis RT97 repeater on a high peak, which would allow us to maintain communication not only within our group but also with our base camp.

This is when I realized just how invaluable this piece of equipment truly is.

An Emergency Situation: Horses Trapped Under Deadfall

Unfortunately, things took a turn when our pack horses wandered into a wooded area and got trapped under deadfall. It was a dangerous situation; the horses couldn’t free themselves, and time was ticking. With the rugged terrain around us, walking back to base camp was not an option.

Thanks to RT97 radio repeater, we had a strong and reliable signal. From the peak, I was able to use my radio to get in touch with our base camp, explaining the emergency and requesting immediate help.

The Power of the Repeater

While many nearby campers believed it was our radios that made the difference, the real hero of the story was the Retevis RT97 repeater. Positioned high on the peak, it allowed us to reach out over the treacherous terrain and communicate directly with our base camp, ensuring help arrived promptly.

The RT97 repeater’s ability to extend communication range in these tough environments was exactly what we needed. Without it, we might have been left stranded, with no easy way to communicate.
