Digital Clarity Meets Rugged Performance

Step into the future of race communication with the RDH16 Digital Handheld Radio from Rugged Radios. Offering crystal-clear audio, enhanced range, and dual digital/analog functionality, the RDH16 is built for high-performance teams who demand reliable communication in the most demanding environments.

Whether you're racing short course, running hot laps, or coordinating your pit crew, this 5-watt handheld keeps you connected with less noise and more clarity—every lap, every call.

The new RDH Digital Handheld Radio comes with automatic error correction. Not only does error correction cancel out loud-engine background noise, but it can also rebuild voice data if a signal becomes corrupted. Digital voice transmissions also carry through to distances where analog radios start to fade, ensuring that your message is still heard loud and clear.

The RDH Radio is capable of both digital & analog signals. If you are transmitting to a second digital radio, you can do so on a digital channel, but if you need to talk to an analog radio, you can simply change over to an analog channel and start your conversation.

  • Digital + analog operation for full compatibility with new and legacy radios
