Never Miss An Important Call
Inlcudes DTMF Paging and variety of scanning features designed to optimize operation. Includes Basic, Priority, Dual Watch, Follow-Me, Follow-Me Dual Watch and Talk Around scanning with a built-in programmable home channel function.

When Safety Counts – Never Be Alone
Includes Emergency notification that will switch to a designated channel and send an emergency alert for help.

Also includes Remote Listen which turns the radio transmit on remotely if needed to check out what is happening near the radio.

For enhanced user safety, the Lone Worker mode is a built-in timer that requires the user to reset at a predetermined interval. If not reset, the radio automatically switches to Emergency mode to alert help.

Dual-Band Receive For Enhanced Communications
Using the Sub-Receiver option, get dual-band receive for greater flexibility and interoperability for full situational awareness. Single VHF or UHF transmit with dual-band receive helps to make communications more productive.

Exclusive Auto-Range Transpond System (ARTS™)
Designed to inform the user when out of communication range with another ARTS™-equipped station. If out of range more than 2 minutes, the radio senses no signal and beeps to alert the user. The base station can then alert the field unit to move back into range. A great solution to keep your workers coordinated.
