It is an unfortunate reality that in the current economic climate debt is more prevalent than ever more and the requirement for debt consolidation and debt management is ever growing. With cuts to government budgets, rising unemployment, increases in inflation and a vast decrease in disposable income, families are forced to borrow money simply to survive and maintain a reasonable standard of living. Families that would never before have considered borrowing money are forced to choose going into debt as an alternative to having too little money to get by.
However, debt can easily spiral out of control when money is owed to a number of creditors and the income once expected to be able to repay such debts does not appear. The result can be numerous creditors demanding money that is simply not available. Of course, if debt repayments are missed the repercussions and the total amount of the debt will only grow. Nevertheless, help is at hand for families who are in this position and are suffering as a result of the current economic climate and the accumulation of considerable debt in the form of debt management advice.
The debt management plan is a system that determines how much an individual or a family can afford to repay creditors on a monthly basis. The debts are then consolidated into a single monthly payment that the family or the individual can actually afford. Once this monthly amount is collected by the debt management plan it is passed on to the creditors to pay off the debts that are owed. During the period of repayment the interest payable on the debts tends to be either greatly reduced or frozen entirely. Moreover, the plan provides real debt help by preventing creditors from pressurising individuals or families into selling assets or property and from encouraging further borrowing.
Moreover, the debt management plan offers free debt advice which can greatly assist families or individuals who are struggling with the burden of debt. The debt management plan takes into account the monthly outgoings of an individual or family including the mortgage, rent, food and utilities and determines a realistic monthly repayment value from the disposable income that is left over. This means that debt repayment does not compromise the necessities in life but requires realistic repayment from the money that is left over. Furthermore, the plan is adjusted according to debtor’s current financial circumstances.
Debt management advice is also provided for all situations regarding debt and the repayment of creditors. Assistance can even be provided if the creditor is taking the individual or the family to court. For real debt help individuals or families should thoroughly consider the debt management plan for assistance with debt management and free debt advice. By consolidating debts and ensuring realistic repayments the burden of being in debt can be substantially reduced, creating peace of mind and reducing the stress within a family or an individual. Debt management can make a real difference.

Let’s talk about ARTS. No, we’re not talking about music, movies, impressionist paintings or the theatre; we’re talking about Vertex Standard ARTS. Vertex radios and ARTS?, you ask. What’s that all about?
ARTS™, also known as Auto-Range Transpond System, is a type of technology used in two way radios – more specifically, Vertex two way radios. In fact, Vertex Standard built ARTS as a standard feature in all of its portable radios, such as the VX-231, VX 351 and VX 354. That’s great, you say. But what is ARTS? What does it do?
The Auto-Range Transpond System (ARTS) is a feature used to detect and alert you when you and another ARTS-equipped radio station are within range of each other. When ARTS is in use, your radio will transmit for one second every 55 seconds in an attempt to handshake with the other radio. If no signal is received or your radio is out of range of the other for more than two minutes, it will emit a beep alert or tone. Once you and the other radio station are within range of each other again, your radio will receive a transmission from the other radio and beep to acknowledge the reconnection.
From an operator’s perspective, ARTS is a simple concept and a feature easily explained and understood. But that’s only the beginning.
Then there is ARTS II.
ARTS II takes ARTS to a whole new level. It uses MDC 1200 encode/decode for selective signaling. MDC (Motorola Data Communications) transmits data on a radio’s voice channel in bursts at a rate of 1200 baud (hence the term MDC 1200). This data includes information about the radio doing the sending, such as its Unit ID, status and pre-defined messages. By utilizing MDC1200 signaling, ARTS II allows each radio user to know exactly which specific radio or radios are in or out of range. ARTS II is a standard feature in the Vertex VX-450 Series portable radios (including the VX-451 and VX-459) and VX 4500 and 4600 Series mobile radios.
Although the technology used to bring ARTS to the world of two way radios is a bit complicated, the concept itself is rather simple and the feature is easy to set up and use. Such a feature can also be a very important tool when you need to stay in touch or monitor employees, team members or other radio operators in your group. The video below demonstrates ARTS and ARTS II in action to help you visualize the potential uses for and value of this feature.
And that’s basically all there is to it. Congratulations! You are now a Master of ARTS.
