Celebrating Women in Two-Way Radio Communication on International Women’s Day 2023

Two-way radio communication is a field that offers a wide range of opportunities for women. Here are just a few reasons why:

1. Flexibility: Two-way radio communication is a field that offers a lot of flexibility. Whether you’re interested in working in public safety, transportation, or hospitality, there are many different career paths you can pursue. Plus, many jobs in this field offer flexible schedules, making it easier to balance work and family obligations.

2. Innovation: The two-way radio communication industry is constantly evolving. New technologies and trends are emerging all the time, creating exciting opportunities for women who are interested in staying on the cutting edge of the industry.

3. Teamwork: Two-way radio communication often involves working as part of a team. This is a great opportunity for women who enjoy collaborating with others and building strong relationships with their coworkers.

There have been many women who have made significant contributions to the two-way radio communication industry over the years. Here are just a few examples:

• Mary Anderson: Anderson was the inventor of the windshield wiper, which was first patented in 1903. This invention made it possible for drivers to operate their vehicles in bad weather conditions, and it was a significant step forward for transportation safety.

  

• Hedy Lamarr: Lamarr was an actress and inventor who developed a frequency-hopping technology that was used to guide torpedoes during World War II. This technology laid the groundwork for modern wireless communication systems.

  

• Shirley Ann Jackson: Jackson was the first African American woman to earn a PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). She went on to work in a variety of roles in academia and government, and she is known for her contributions to the development of fiber optic cables.

  

Women are taking on leadership roles in two-way radio companies, working as engineers, sales representatives, and managers. They are driving innovation, designing cutting-edge technology, and ensuring that customers receive the best products and services.

Women are also using two-way radios in their jobs as security guards, event coordinators, and hospitality workers. They rely on these devices to communicate with their teams and to respond quickly to emergencies. Two-way radios are essential for keeping people safe and for ensuring that events run smoothly.

But despite the important role that women play in two-way radio, there are still challenges to overcome. Women continue to face barriers in male-dominated industries, including unequal pay, discrimination, and lack of representation in leadership positions. We believe that everyone, regardless of gender, should have the opportunity to succeed in their careers and achieve their goals.

At CTS Radios, we are committed to supporting women in two-way radio and promoting diversity and inclusion in our industry. We believe that everyone has the right to feel safe and supported in their workplace and that diversity makes us stronger. On International Women's Day, let's celebrate the achievements of women in two-way radio and continue to work towards a more equal future.
