Texas Farming Operation Upgrades Communication with Retevis RT97S Repeater

Texas Farming Operation Upgrades Communication with Retevis RT97S Repeater

Texas Farming Operation Upgrades Communication with Retevis RT97S Repeater

Texas rancher Jake Thompson knows the importance of effective communication in managing his 1,500-acre farm and cattle ranch. His operation, which includes a mix of cattle, corn, and wheat, covers a vast expanse of land, requiring constant coordination among his crew. After struggling with unreliable CB radios and delayed phone calls during crucial farming tasks, Thompson decided to upgrade to Retevis RT97S GMRS repeaters.

Challenges with Previous Communication Systems

Operating under tight schedules, particularly with irrigation and livestock management, Thompson found that previous communication methods were no longer cutting it. During peak planting seasons or high-demand harvest periods, workers often missed critical messages from CB radios that lacked sufficient range, and cell phones were often out of reach when driving across the property.

How Retevis Solutions Improve Communication on the Farm?

Retevis solutions now serve as the backbone of the farm's communication network:

RT97S GMRS Repeater ensures seamless coverage for large areas, providing crystal-clear communication from the main barn to the farthest field.

NR30S handheld radios are used in the field and across various areas of the farm, allowing the crew to stay connected no matter where they are working. These compact, durable radios ensure clear communication even over long distances, making them ideal for large properties.

The RT97S radio Repeater and handheld radios work in tandem to ensure no communication gaps, improving coordination and safety during critical operations.

Improved Efficiency and Safety for Farm Crews

"Last season, managing the hay harvest with multiple teams meant constant phone calls — but now, I can broadcast all updates at once to everyone on the job," says Thompson. The Retevis  waterproof handheld radios enhance safety, especially when working late into the night during hay baling, when visibility is low.

With the RT97S mobile repeater in place, the team has been able to respond faster and work more efficiently. Workers can now coordinate irrigation rotations without delays, using the radios to communicate across the expansive fields. Additionally, livestock handlers can report issues immediately instead of waiting until the end of the day for an update, reducing the risk of further damage or complications.

Stronger Team Connections and Future Expansion Plans

Thompson appreciates the improved team morale. "Our workers feel more connected, and the constant communication has increased our productivity," he says. The farm is now planning to expand the radio system to include moisture sensors that will automatically alert the team to changes in soil moisture levels, further enhancing the farm's operation during critical seasons.
