Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the battery last on the Hytera TC-320?
The TC-320 uses the BL1715 1700 mAh lithium-ion battery, providing up to 15 hours of continuous operation under a standard 5-5-90 duty cycle.
Does this radio require an FCC license to operate?
The TC-320 is a Part 90 commercial two-way radio and requires an FCC business radio license to operate. While the FCC’s Family Radio Service (FRS) rules under 47 C.F.R. Part 95 allow license-free operation at up to 2 watts on certain UHF channels, FRS operation is restricted to devices that are specifically type-accepted for FRS. The TC-320 is not FRS type-accepted and must be licensed for use. Contact Atlantic Radio for assistance with frequency coordination and licensing guidance.
Is the Hytera TC-320 waterproof?
The TC-320 carries an IP54 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and splashing water from any direction. It is not rated for submersion.
Can I charge this radio with a standard USB cable?
Yes. The TC-320 features a mini-USB charging port, allowing you to charge via the included wall adapter. An optional CH05L01 desktop charger is also available.
What is the maximum range of this radio?
The 2-watt UHF transmission power allows the TC-320 to penetrate concrete walls and floors effectively, typically providing coverage for buildings up to 250,000 square feet or across standard multi-story commercial facilities.
Can the TC-320 communicate with my existing analog radios?
Yes. As long as your existing radios operate on the same analog UHF frequencies (400–470 MHz) and use matching privacy codes, the TC-320 can be programmed via the included CPS software to communicate with them. The PC30 programming cable is required and sold separately.
Can the TC-320 be programmed to work with the Motorola CLS1110 or CLS1410?
Yes. The Motorola CLS1110 and CLS1410 are analog UHF radios that operate on standard business frequencies within the 462–467 MHz range. The TC-320 can be programmed via the included CPS software to match those frequencies and privacy codes, allowing it to communicate directly with CLS series radios on the same channel. The PC30 programming cable is required and sold separately. Contact Atlantic Radio for assistance with frequency matching and programming.
