Who is the inventor of the walkie talkie?
Basically, there isn't just one inventor. Donald Lewes Hings and Alfred J. Gross, along with developers from Motorola, are credited with the development of the walkie talkie, or handheld transceiver, during WWII. Dan Noble technically came up with the design for the first model, while Henryk Magnuski, Marion Bond, Lloyd Morris, and Bill Vogel were responsible for most of the engineering work.
How do you take off the clip in back of the cobra walkie talkie?
Oh, I had a pair of Cobra walkie-talkies a real long time ago. Frankly? The only way the clip ever came off was to pull with all our might. Though I'm not sure that's the proper procedure, but hey, it worked!
How did the walkie talkie help with combat in World War 2?
First of all let's agree on what a Walkie-Talkie is. The World War Two Walkie-Talkie was a large backpack unit, with an aerial sticking up, that you talked into and listened using a hand-held telephone-like device. It weighed 40 pounds and operated on FM frequencies. (1944 and beyond. Before that it was AM))It could operate in an area up to 10-20 miles. The smaller "Spam Can" unit (SCR-536)-- which most people mistakenly identify as a Walkie-Talkie -- was a hand-held unit that you talked into on one end and listened on the other. It was shaped like a large cardboard milk carton (Or the tin can that the GI's SPAM came in -- hense the name) It weighed about 9 pounds or so (I can't remember exactly) and operated on FM. The Walkie-Talkie was mostly used for longer distance taffic -- ship to shore, air to ground, headquarters to headquarters, etc. The Spam Can was used for shorter distances -- front line traffic ... platoons, companies, battalions, observers, etc. Both units allowed you to walk and talk at the same time -- or remain stationary. In a way they could be likened to the modern day cell phone. In heavy combat they were the only electronic means of communication on the front lines --until the Signal Corps people could lay and string wire for telephone communication. Hope all this answers your question. If not, come back. vcs
What is the difference between walkie talkie and cell phones?
The difference is walkie talkies are less expensive than a cell phone. Also walkie talkies came back maybe in the 70s or 80s, even though people have been upgrading then with better frequency and digital pictures and formats. An a cell phone can text and sent pictures to friends too. A cell phone can do many different things to connect with friends and family. You can also connect to the Internet aswelll.
