Keeping Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga connected
For Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, BTW supplied two high-capacity, custom-designed repeater trailers, solar powered and built to withstand the harsh conditions of the filming locations. Running Motorola Capacity Plus trunking, each trailer carried 44 talk groups and 4 analogue channels, giving Motorola MOTOTRBO DP series portables wide-area coverage up to 30 km from the main unit.
Transport teams used Motorola WAVE TLK 100 and TLK 150 push-to-talk over cellular radios to stay in contact over much greater distances, including in metropolitan areas. Throughout the shoot, BTW supplied more than 1,000 portable radios.
