New this Spring from Skookum Works
Spring Updates from Skookum Works: New Guides, Guards & Gear Upgrades
Spring is here, and so are new updates from the Skookum Works bench. We've been working behind the scenes to roll out fresh support tools, upgraded gear, and new compatibility options for the equipment you count on. Here's what’s new:
📘 New Install Guides: Knob Blocker & Hot Mic
We’ve added step-by-step install guides for the Knob Blocker and Hot Mic. If you’re using either accessory—or both—these guides will walk you through setup quickly and clearly. Less guesswork, more uptime.
🛡️ New Hot Mic and Knob Blocker Guards: More Radios Covered
You asked, we delivered. We’ve expanded our guard lineup to cover more radio models:
Icom Family radios - Icom F1000S / HM 158LA, Icom F70T
These new guards are designed to take a beating while keeping your gear mission-ready.
🧱 Material Upgrade: Knob Blocker for APX Series
The Knob Blocker just got tougher. Our APX Series version now uses a new material for improved durability and performance in the field. Same clean fit, now built to handle even more.
📟 Pager Blocker v1.1 Is Here
Version 1.1 of the Pager Blocker is now available. It features improved fit and finish plus enhanced compatibility based on early user feedback. A tighter lock, a smoother install.
🎤 Hot Mic Now Fits RM780 Speaker Mic
Good news for Motorola RM780 users—the Hot Mic is now fully compatible with this speaker mic. Same functionality, new fit. More options for more teams.
🙌 Give Back Program: Supporting Voluneteer First Responder Teams
So far this year, we’ve donated over $2,400 worth of guards through our Give Back Program. Shout out to our current recipients:
