Apollo Wireless Pagers

Post by bellersley »

Not really a Motorola thread, however.

Is anyone on here an Apollo dealer? I'd like to order one of their pagers, but cannot find a local source. Please PM me if you're able to help. Thanks!

I just called the number on their website and the guy sold to me direct. He gave me an awesome price too (below what was listed on their site).

That's how I got my Apollo pagers.
Analog already is interoperable.

Sorry, our website is in the middle of a whole new redesign. We currently do not sell stuff online, but are working on changing it. Pricing can be obtained via email or phone calls at this time

The VP100 which is basically a Motorola Keynote works ok. We have quite a few departments thant like them due to the size. I am not fond of it, but it does work, and RX is much better than a MIII/MIV. The new VP200 is really nice. I have had mine for a few months now, and it sits next to my MV at night. The audio quality i the biggest thing I notice. On a activation for my FD I hear the VP200 better than the MV. With the VP200 off I can barely hear my MV upstairs in my bedroom (pagers are down stairs).

As for Recieve signals, not really sure yet. Our main paging channel is simulcast, and is hard not to hear 2 counties away, however our county sherriff also has a vhf base at one location. On ch2 we have that, and for the most part it recieves as good, and sometimes better than the MV. As for holding up, I beat the crap out of it, and it seems to work really well, and I have not broken the clip off the back yet.
