BK Technologies' BKR 9000 Sees Pre-Order Momentum - Delivering All-Band Capability At An Accessible Price Point

WEST MELBOURNE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / February 2, 2023 / BK Technologies Corporation (NYSE American:BKTI) (the "Company" or "BK Technologies") today announced continued pre-order activity for its BKR 9000, with orders from the Pilot Point Fire Department and the Kenedy County Sheriff, both in Texas, as well as from Tulare County Fire, in California. The BKR 9000 is the Company's multiband portable communications technology for the public safety market, providing high performance all-band coverage at a cost-efficient price point.

John Suzuki, CEO for BK Technologies, commented, "We continue to see tremendous interest in our BKR 9000 portable communication platform, with steady pre-order activity from both new and existing customers. The wide-ranging appeal of our technology is reflected in interest from first responder agencies from remote, rural and suburban areas, alike and includes law enforcement as well as fire response organizations. We believe there is tremendous potential for our BKR 9000 portable communications technology as a solution for local emergency agencies in smaller, less populated geographies, which require high performance communications capabilities at an accessible price point. As we move through the last phases of launch, including anticipated FCC certification, we look forward to rolling out this new technology with enhanced multiband capabilities to a broader audience of public safety customers."

Stephen Theisen, Vice President of Sales, added, "There are approximately 29,0000 fire departments in the U.S. and an estimated 24,000 are predominantly volunteer departments -- often with budget constraints, and the BKR 9000 is designed to meet their needs for superior, yet affordable in-field communications technology. BK's strong brand recognition in Wildland Fire combined with a high performance, affordable multiband radio makes volunteer fire departments a great fit for the BKR9000."
