RIOSLiTE vs WAVE Tactical Communicator

RIOS LiTE enables Apple iOS devices to communicate with any type of radio or personal computer via the SyTech Radio Interoperability System. RIOS LiTE creates a connection across the customer’s preferred carrier network, allowing the authorized user to extend the range of any radio system while offering unlimited communications interoperability. RIOS LiTe also transmits the user's GPS location which is available for mapping through the RIOS desktop mapping tools. Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
