RadioShack 22 Channel GMRS FRS Base Station 21-1846
Radio Shack model 21-1846 22-Channel GMRS/FRS Base Station.
This is a type of wireless intercom, however, unlike previous Radio Shack wireless intercoms, this uses an over-the-air Ariel transmitting antenna rather than placing RF directly into your home electrical system.

Features:
- 38 selectable quiet codesvirtually eliminate interference
- Hands-free voice activaition
- Operates on home AC-no batteries required
- Talk To Other GMRS and FRS 2-way radios
This is an A/C powered wireless intercom using FRS/GMRS radio frequencies.
Using Vox
VOX allows you to transmit hands free. To activate VOX press the [VOX] button. This toggles between VOX on or off.
A quirk with this model is that although a short-press of the [VOX] button will enable VOX, it will not always disable it. A long-press of the [VOX] button activates the feature menu. To disable VOX you have to press the [VOX] button a bit longer than the short press that activates VOX, and not quite as long as it takes to de-activate VOX. Again, this is a glitch in some models.
