Just curious what the application of the ISM 900MHz radios were intended for. Thanks!

Metal buildings, close proximity stuff inside buildings, or just general business use. I used a pair at Dayton once and they worked for pretty much most of the span of the place. I was impressed.

In a nutshell, they're onsite business radios.

They're basically intended for:

Factories
Hotels/Motels
Highrise management staff
Offices
Automobile dealerships
Warehouses
Large retail stores
Construction sites
Etc...

They offer excellent in-building penetration, and can often be used in place of 4-watt UHF radios with better results within buildings. We have customers using them in hotels which previously needed a repeater with their UHF radios to give full coverage. The DTRs have no coverage issues in these cases.

I just did a brief review of the DTR radios, complete with spectrum analyzer plots. It was in some radio forum if I can just now find the url.
I can say these things work excellent.
