Radios are a type of Item found in SCP: Secret Laboratory.

In Game

Radios allow for long range communication between other players who have Radios, regardless of what team they may be on.

Radios start with 100% charge, which will slowly deplete if the Radio remains active. Higher ranges will drain power faster.

Holding down V will allow the player to use the Radio. The Radio does not need to be equipped in order to use it.

One can change the channels by equipping the Radio and pressing Left Click. There are currently 4 ranges: Short Range, Medium Range, Long Range and Ultra Range (SR, MR, LR, UR).

The Radio can be turned on or off by pressing Right Click.
While the Radio is turned off, battery will not be consumed.

Range

  • Short Range - 108 meters 7.2 hallways
  • Medium Range - 180 meters 12 hallways
  • Long Range - 1080 meters 72 hallways
  • Ultra Range - 7200 meters 480 hallways


One hallway is 15 meters. If two players are using different ranges on the Radio, the range two players can communicate will be the range of the whatever range is the best between them.

Power Usage

The Radio has a limited and short battery life that it uses up over time before dying. The power usages depends on range and if the radio is idle or currently being used to broadcast. Receiving a message does not deplete the battery faster.
