Will a cell phone or walkie-talkie work from inside a bank vault?

This is for a story. I need a character who's locked in a bank vault to communicate with someone on the outside but I don't know what kind of signal would get through.Will a cell phone or walkie-talkie work from inside a bank vault?
No, the only thing I can think of would be a camera and a mic inside and and a camera and a mic in some sort of control room outside it, could be there to monitor the vault and/or talk to people on the inside when the vault is open.Will a cell phone or walkie-talkie work from inside a bank vault?
For a story, you can take your artisic license on physics.



If you must obey physics, I would say probably not.Will a cell phone or walkie-talkie work from inside a bank vault?

by far the best two makers are garmin or motorola.

I personally like garmin, but that's just cause i've had good luck with them, and haven't wanted to chance buying something else. They make excellent products and have great range (5+ miles).

Motorola has great range, and i've used some that were excellent. Just never bought them due to the fact i like to stick with brands i've had good luck with.



Buy whatever you afford, you can't go wrong with either brand.
Radio Shack, they can all be set to scramble.

There are PDF from torrent files explaing how to do this but you'd have to search them and use a torrent downloader







If things get to complicted from there try



Step

1

Tin canWash and dry two clean cheap tin cans. These are going to be the walkie talkies or telephones. Make a small hole in the center of each can making sure it has no sharp edges. It has to be large enough for the insertion of the string or cord, into each of the cans.



Step

2

tin cans with string on each canPush the string into each hole of the tin cans from the outside. Keep the string from slipping out by making a few knots in the ends. This will keep the string from slipping out of the cans when each person pulls their ''telephone'' or cellphone taut while you call someone and talk into it.



Step

3

longer strings allow for a longer distanceTalk into the can to the person in another room or in another area. The longer the cord, you can be a long distance from someone you want to talk to. Pull the string tight as you talk into the can. You will be able to hear and speak to each other. This 'Walkie Talkie', was also called a telephone and used by children communicating with each other and having fun speaking to their friends.

It sounds like you have a radio with a mixture of FRS and GMRS frequencies. The site below should help. I would guess the FRS frequencies are in the first 14 channels but don't know for sure. The GMRS frequencies are probably the ones listed as simplex.

The 'sub c' stands for a tone coded squelch frequency. The second site below lists the tones. To communicate, the radios need to have no 'sub c' or they all have to have the same 'sub c'. The 'sub c' prevents you from hearing other conversations that are using a different code.

Good luck.

Why do I hear other people's conversations on my amp and walkie talkie?

I hear other conversations. I'll be saying something and I hear this guy talking about something else. How does this happen?Why do I hear other people's conversations on my amp and walkie talkie?
You are using the same radio frequency as the other person. If you are using a coded squelch then both of you have happened to choose the same squelch code. In that case you can just change your code.

Are there any apps to turn a smartphone into a walkie-talkie or shortwave radio emmiter?

I realize that this question might be rather stupid, since I understand nothing about the inner workings of phones and radios. Still, I was wondering if an app existed that could turn a smartphone into an emergency radio, for instance if you are lost outside of network range or if the network itself fails due to some disaster. I have an Android phone, kind you, but the question was more theoretical in nature. I am simply curious.Are there any apps to turn a smartphone into a walkie-talkie or shortwave radio emmiter?
no, there is not, cellphones are made to transmit on a fixed frequency for the service (usually 800/1900 GSM) if you want to be able to transmit you'd have to modify the inside of the phone plus reprogram it to work like a radio. It would take you a lot of time and maybe money.



If you want a radio thought you get CB radios, which don't cost much or frs/gmrs walkie talkies (less effective though)



If you want to use shortwave other than CB or GMRS getting a HAM radio license is something good to look into and not to hard either. With a Ham radio you can talk all over most the US easy.
