In Game
Radios are a type of item found in SCP: Secret Laboratory. Radios allow for long range communication between other players who have radios, regardless of what team they may be on.
To use the radio, hold down the V key, this can be changed in the Key Bindings setting, called "Alt Chat".
The radio can be turned off by pressing Right Click.
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).
Radios start with 100% charge, which will slowly deplete if the radio remains active. Higher ranges will drain power faster.
While the radio is turned off, battery will not be consumed.
Depleted radios can be recharged in SCP-914 on the 1:1 and Fine settings.

One hallway is about 15.45 meters.
If two players are using different ranges on the Radio, the range the players can communicate with each other is the average of both ranges. So "(Range1 + Range2) / 2". For example, the default range, Medium, is 187.5m while Long range is 1125 meters. So, (187.5 + 1125) / 2 equals 656.3. So a Radio on Medium Range can communicate with a Radio on Long Range if it is within 656.3 meters and vice versa. Below is a chart showing the distances for each range combination.
High enough ranges can be used to communicate with players on other levels of the Facility.
Keep in mind, Light Containment Zone is above Heavy Containment Zone, so a Radio on Surface will have an easier time reaching a Radio in Light Containment Zone than a Radio in Heavy Containment Zone. Warhead Silo and SCP-049's Room are also located above Heavy Containment Zone, but are closer to Heavy Containment Zone than Light Containment Zone.
Short Range | Medium Range | Long Range | Ultra Range | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Short Range | 7.3 hallways | 9.7 hallways | 40 hallways | 246.4 hallways |
Medium Range | 9.7 hallways | 12.1 hallways | 42.5 hallways | 248.8 hallways |
Long Range | 40 hallways | 42.5 hallways | 72.8 hallways | 279.1 hallways |
Ultra Range | 246.4 hallways | 248.8 hallways | 279.1 hallways | 485.4 hallways |
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.
Range | Idle | Talking | Total Idle Time | Total Talk Time |
---|---|---|---|---|
Short | 0.01% per second | 0.7% per second | 166.67 minutes | 2.38 minutes |
Medium | 0.02% per second | 1% per second | 83.33 minutes | 1.67 minutes |
Long | 0.08% per second | 2% per second | 20.83 minutes | 50 seconds |
Ultra | 0.23% per second | 4% per second | 7.25 minutes | 20 seconds |

Trivia
- The back of the Radio has a worn off note saying "For f__k sake please do not recharge using SCP-914!!"
- Near the bottom of the radio is another note saying "Please don't use in 914"
- When the Radio's model was first changed, its inventory icon was still of the old model.
- This was fixed in v11 when the Radio got an overhaul with a second model change.
