Revenue is generated through hardware sales of radios and accessories plus ODM/OEM custom manufacturing services, all priced via inquiry-based quoting rather than public price lists. Primary customer segments are amateur radio enthusiasts, commercial/business users, marine operators, repeater station operators, digital radio system operators, and public network radio users.
