ICOM IC-SAT100 PTT Satellite Radio Rental

Press the button and your whole team hears you at once, without a tower or a repeater in the loop. The ICOM IC-SAT100 is a second satellite push-to-talk radio available to rent, built for the same job as any PTT radio: keep a spread-out team on one channel for the length of the deployment.

The date you choose is the day it arrives. Pick the day you want the equipment in your hands, not the day you leave. Your rental starts the day you receive it and ends the day we get it back, so leave yourself a day or two to test everything before you travel.

What you can rent

Every unit is pre-tested and activated before it leaves the warehouse, so it works the moment you switch it on. Most orders ship the same day, and you can collect in San Diego if that beats waiting on a courier.

What it's for

The IC-SAT100 puts your team on a shared talkgroup channel so anyone can press the button and be heard by everyone else on it, the same working pattern as any satellite push-to-talk radio. It's a fit anywhere a group needs to talk together rather than call one person at a time.

One press reaches every radio on the talkgroup through the satellite directly. No towers, no repeaters, nothing to set up on site.

Who it's not for

If you only need to reach one specific person, a satellite phone rental is the simpler and more direct tool. If your whole team stays within range of an existing repeater on one site, ordinary land mobile radio does the job without a talkgroup plan at all.

How the talkgroup plan works

This rental is billed on a monthly talkgroup access plan rather than a bundle of minutes, the same billing shape as the other satellite PTT radio on this site. Every handset on the talkgroup shares the one channel for the length of the rental.

It cannot take a US phone number. A talkgroup has no number to dial, so if the job also needs someone reachable by an ordinary call, add an Iridium handset or the Inmarsat IsatPhone 2 alongside it.

What arrives

Every unit is pre-tested, activated and verified before it leaves the warehouse, so it's ready to join the talkgroup on arrival. Accessories such as a jump starter battery pack, a magnetic mount, a data kit or a Pelican hard case can be added by the day.

Booking and support

Booking works the same as any rental here: pick the number of radios, set your dates, add accessories, then enter billing and shipping. Every order can ship to arrive on the date you choose or be collected in person from our San Diego location, and rental insurance is available as a per-day add-on.

Support runs around the clock through certified specialists, most orders go out the same day with priority US shipping, and the store carries a 4.8 out of 5 rating from 451 Shopper Approved reviews.

Questions people ask before they book

What is the ICOM IC-SAT100?

It's a satellite push-to-talk radio, rented on a monthly talkgroup plan so your team shares one channel without needing a tower or repeater. Press the button and everyone assigned to the talkgroup hears you at once, the same working pattern as any satellite PTT radio available to rent here.

Can I add a US number to this rental?

No. A talkgroup has no number to dial, so a US number cannot be added to any PTT rental, including this one. Add an Iridium handset or an Inmarsat IsatPhone 2 alongside it if the job also needs a callable number.

How does the talkgroup billing work?

It runs on a monthly talkgroup access plan rather than a per-minute bundle, so budget it as a flat plan for the length of the rental rather than as minutes to track. Every handset added to the talkgroup shares that one plan for as long as the rental runs.

Does the ICOM IC-SAT100 arrive ready to use?

Yes. Every unit is pre-tested, activated and verified before it leaves the warehouse, so it's ready to join your talkgroup on arrival rather than needing setup once you're already on the job with no time to spare and nobody to call for help.

Should I rent the ICOM IC-SAT100 or the Iridium Extreme PTT?

Both share the same talkgroup billing, so the choice comes down to the rest of the trip rather than the radio's plan. The Iridium Extreme PTT page covers pole-to-pole coverage in detail; start on the push-to-talk hub to compare both before deciding.
