Buying notes
Is this the right fit?
- Good fit when
- Use this when you need to add, replace, or move the part that makes the sound, flashes, or provides the alert output.
- Look at another option when
- It will not create a new alert point by itself. Choose a compatible transmitter, such as a push button, door contact, PIR motion sensor, or driveway sensor, or choose a complete kit if you need both sides of the system.
- Range reality
- Check the listed compatibility and placement notes before ordering. Building layout often matters as much as the product rating.
- Setup note
- Place the receiver where people need the alert, then pair it with the existing compatible transmitter. For large or divided spaces, test more than one receiver location.
The M538-BS is a 2-way radio transceiver designed for use with the Dakota Alert MURS-based alerts. This base station has five channels and thirty-eight subchannels for communication with other users over several miles (depending on terrain).
You are allowed to operate this two-way base station with a license. The M538-BS plugs into a standard wall outlet through an included transformer.
A radio alert is sent from a Dakota Alert MURS-based transmitter. Once the base station receives the radio signal, it chimes and displays an icon in the LCD window, letting you know a signal has been received. The base station also comes with a "Normally ON" (NO) relay that can be used for add-on devices such as an alarm panel, door chime, strobe light, siren, and many others.
The M538-BS also communicates with the Dakota Alert M538-HT or handheld transceiver. This is also a two-way radio. You can communicate two ways with the other transceivers to communicate with other users on the system. This system has a range of several miles which gives you added flexibility and usage.
*Actual range will vary depending on the local terrain.

Answers from our team for M538 Dakota Alert Recevier For Chimes-Range of Several Miles.
Does the charger come with the handheld receiver?
Good morning. The M538 is only the long range receiver. The kit with the handheld transmitter and long range receiver would be the MURS-HT-KIT and I have included that link below.
