  We have a low budget so we needed to find some low-price handheld radios for our school. We were looking online and found these! They work perfect for us and we are glad we got them from these guys.

  Happy Customer

  I placed an order for these radios and they shipped them out the same day. The Blackbox Bantam radios were the best deal I could get. I am happy with them.

  Best price and best deal!

  I wanted to find a cheap 16-channel radio. I was on this site looking at the options for Motorola radios and got help from an employee through Ichat on the website. I told him what was up and he helped me find this radio.

  The case is great and the radio is as well.

  Nick is the guy I talked to. He was very helpful. I had dropped my Motorola radio and was looking to replace it with another one. Nick told me that they had a radio in stock that actually had a protective silicone case. I was sold.

  I ordered this radio and was confused with the charger. I could not figure out how to put the radio in it for the life of me! I called you guys up and you assisted me in getting my radio in the charger the right way.

  This radio is extremely easy to handle.

  I was only looking to get one with 8 channels, but after buying this one I use them all. They are all super clear and if I ever have a problem with any of my radios I call them up and they are ALWAYS there to help.

  Awesome radio!

  It has great coverage inside of buildings and we are able to use it all day long. Because of the rapid charger it does not take a long time to charge up at night. I ordered about 3 of these a year and a half ago and was looking to order more. They put in the sales order and shipped them the very same day. Great customer service.

  Solid Radio

  Posted by Unknown on 15th Jan 2013

  I lost all our radios and needed some new ones fast! I had originally got the Motorola radios with the Lith-Ion battery and the rapid charger. These seemed to work great and I called to order some more, but a sales rep provided me with a cheaper option-the Blackbox. I purchased a small amount of these and I am glad I did. They are cheaper and they still included the rapid charger and Lith-Ion batteries.

  Great coverage

  We use these Bantam radios in our warehouse. We switched to Bantam after using the Motorola RDV2020. The Bantam has twice the power output and much better coverage. The free rubber carry case was definitely a nice bonus!
