and selected feature options.

 

 Full Spectrum Backlighting:

 user adjustable, totally 

customisable backlight settings to match the vehicles 
dashboard lighting or drivers preference.

 

 

Digital Signal Processing:

 measures, filters and compresses 

standard analogue audio signals and converts them into 
digital format. Allows advanced rF and audio processing 
techniques to be applied to maximise the radios performance.

 

 

Advanced Signal Management:

 Identifies interference 

caused by strong local signals on adjacent channels and 
prevents these from opening your squelch. Asm also 
minimises distortion on reception by fine tuning the receiver 
frequency to match that of the incoming signal.

 

 

 Dynamic Volume Control: 

Automatically compensates for 

variations in received audio level to provide a constant audio 
output level to the speaker.

 

 

 

Programmable Scan Function:

selected functions at a glance.

 

 

 

Fully Customisable Backlighting:

 user adjustable back light 

settings provides smooth blending of brightness, colour and 
saturation to suit your personal preference.

 A built-in continuous tone coded squelch 

and digital coded squelch system option provides silent  
channel operation.

 

 

 Over Voltage Protection:

 special overvoltage detection 

circuitry protects the radio and warns of excessive voltage 
conditions by flashing the display.

 

 

Surface Mount Technology:

 the very latest surface mount 

component types, design and assembly techniques and 
quality

 

control procedures are used to ensure the highest 

performance and reliability.

 

 d

ual Microphone Input Sockets:

 Front and rear microphone 

sockets to match most installation needs.

 

 

Front and Rear microphone inputs:

 convenient front and 

rear microphone inputs to facilitate ease of installation and 
operation across a range of vehicles.
