depends
Digital is a XTS5000 - for this you would need the Encryption Board, plus the key
Analogue is a mix between a few models however most common is the GP339 Portable

Radios can be purchased from TR Bearcom or any other Motorola Dealer

the Motorola HT600 is a brick compared to the GP339 which is the model i own and also has 4 channels compared to the 225 channel capacity on the GP339

GP339 Features
*Voting
*Alpha Tagging
*4 Watt output
*Signalling - ZVEI, CCIR and User Defined
* DTMF plus more

Vehicles here in Hervey Bay still have Tait 2020's. I know they use to use the same on the Gold Coast (10+ years ago).
