Why are farmers turning to mobile radio? During planting
and harvesting your farm and equipment need to be
operating at full potential. General Electric Mobile Radio
Systems provide quick, cost effective communications from
home or field. It's like having another "farm hand' to help
with the chores.

big investment...
Time is valuable. An equipment break
down in the field, delayed supplies, or
sudden weather changes mean lost
dollars, without quick reaction. Our
OE mobile radio system gives ue
greater control and coordination over
our operation. It’s a farmer's friend."
