ble, easy-to-use, two-way transceiver
that you can carry almost anywhere. It
is approved with commercial-grade
standards to give you clear, reliable
communication. 

Your transceiver provides personal
communication with family members or
other licensees. You can use the trans-
ceiver for recreational communications
while you hike, ski, or fish. You can
even use the transceiver to coordinate
your activities with other family mem-
bers. When you get a license to oper-
ate the transceiver, other members of

your family living in the same house-
hold can also operate the transceiver.

PLL–Controlled Circuitry — provides
accurate and stable channel selection.

Built-in Modulation Limiter Circuit
 automatically adjusts for a wide va-
riety of voice levels to ensure an un-
derstandable transmission.

LCD Display with Backlight  illumi-
nates for 5 seconds when pressing any
key except 

LOCK/PTT

.

Splash Proof (JIS Level 4)   pro-
vides excellent water resistance.
