The ability to share information is fundamental to mankind’s evolution, therefore when one considers the isolation and geography of Australia, it is clear why radio communications have played such an important role in the development of the nation’s infrastructure. Reliable radio access has been a vital component in such Australian icons as the Royal Flying Doctor Service and The School of the Air. It is also not surprising that innovative telecommunications should emerge as one of the country’s leading industries.

For over 25 years the Australian rural community has enjoyed the benefits of GME’s radio communications. In the 1980s our range of 477MHz transceivers was instrumental in changing the face of farm communications, improving productivity and safety. Today GME telemetry and data radio equipment is introducing new levels of efficiency in farming, viticulture and many associated rural activities.
