Frequently Asked Questions About Motorola R2

Is the Motorola R2 a replacement for the CP200d?

Yes. The Motorola R2 is the modern successor to the CP200d. It is thinner, lighter, and more durable while maintaining full compatibility with your existing CP200d audio accessories and chargers.

Does the Motorola R2 require an FCC license?

Yes. The Motorola R2 operates on licensed business frequencies (UHF or VHF). An FCC license is required to use this device legally, ensuring you have a private channel free from public interference.

What is the difference between UHF and VHF models?

UHF (Ultra High Frequency) is best for indoor use, as it penetrates obstacles like concrete, steel, and drywall effectively. VHF (Very High Frequency) travels further in open outdoor spaces. Choose UHF for buildings; choose VHF for open fields.

Can I use my old earpieces with the R2?

Yes. The Motorola R2 uses the standard Motorola 2-pin accessory connector. If you have audio accessories from a CP200, CP200d, or BPR40, they will plug directly into the R2.

How durable is the Motorola R2?

The radio is built to MIL-STD 810 standards for shock and vibration and carries an IP55 rating. This means it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for rain and dirty work environments.
