Where to find radios (walkies)?

[WrecklessMEDIC 129]

I've heard they've added radios recently but I haven't seen one yet. Are there any specific places people are finding them or is it completely random?

Any helpful hints would be appreciated. Thanks. :)

Found one today in the fire station at the NW airfield, first one I came across

found a damaged one in a hangar on a hardcore server put a battery in it and it seems to work, but I have no use for it, maybe I will find someone who wants it.

Firestations is where I've found all of mine. Had no use for them, so I just leave them there.

Firestations. That's the only place they spawn.

Firestations are the only places I've found them, and I find them in ABUNDANCE.

 

Better nab yourself one before people realise they work.

Do they work? I can't equip mine.

After you attach the battery right click on it in the inventory. You should see options to turn it on and change the frequency. After you turn it on you can change from direct chat to frequency by pressing the , and . keys. Then just hit caps lock to talk.
