Very popular with motorists on the highway who want to talk to each other, communicate with truckies or receive up to date traffic reports but don’t want to mount external antennas or drill holes in their dashboard or firewall.
All FDP Radios come per-programmed standard out of the box, however please note that radios will not be programmed to allocated private channels to transmit on Land Mobile frequencies without the proper authority or before sighting a copy of your valid license.
What we are finding is that people are using the Speaker Mike attached to the radio, then putting the radio into a stubby cooler, and then putting the stubby cooler in the cars drinks holder. This becomes their in-car radio set up. Very clever, had to laugh, but it works well!.
**Please Note** that ‘Software Defined** means that features like power, squelch, channel allocations, CTCSS/DSC, scrambler and battery save are all preset by the distributor or approved dealer with software, and can’t be changed via the keypad, making this an easy to use, powerful, no nonsense transceiver for commercial or recreational use.
The Group Alert Alarm will only activate for less than 3 seconds in any 60 second period, regardless of how many times it is press in that minute. This is to comply to the CBRS tone timing restrictions imposed by the Standard.
