NX-240V16P/340U16P
Compact VHF/UHF Digital and Analog 5W Portable Radios
Kenwood’s NX-240V16P/340U16P 16 channel
5 Watt portable radios operate in either
analog FM or NXDN®digital modes, offering a
cost-effective way to migrate smoothly from
legacy systems while discovering the benefits
of advanced digital technology – including
increased effective coverage area, low noise
for superior clarity, and inherent secured
voice. All this comes in a tough, compact radio
that is easy to operate, delivers high-powered
audio, and ensures round-the-clock reliability.
SWITCHABLE DIGITAL AND ANALOG
DUAL MODES
The NX-240V16P/340U16P is effectively two radios in
one – analog and digital – operating on 12.5kHz in
analog zones, and on 6.25kHz NXDN
For convenience, a PF key can be used to switch
between zones.
®
in digital zones.
SUPERIOR CLARITY IN EXTENDED COVERAGE
NX-240V16P/340U16P radios employ NXDN®, an FDMA
digital air interface with AMBE+2™ voice coding
technology, unique filtering and a 4-level FSK modulation
technique with low bit error rate (BER) even at weak RF
signal strengths. As RF signal strength weakens with
distance, analog reception becomes increasingly noisy
and intermittent. NXDN®’s low BER improves reception
in fringe areas, thereby “effectively” increasing coverage
as much as 20% over analog.
ENHANCED AUDIO QUALITY
AMBE+2™ VOCODER technology accurately replicates
natural human speech nuances for superior voice quality,
even at highway speeds. Additionally, the powerful
36mm-diameter speaker delivers up to 1 watt audio output, providing undeniably clearer and crisper audio.
FREQUENCY & QT/DQT/RAN
Users can program a ProTalk®to any of the pre-stored
frequencies, QT/DQT analog codes, RAN digital codes,
thus assuring compatibility with other brands. The
ProTalk®digital VHF (NX-240V16P) 16-channel model
has 27 pre-stored frequencies while the ProTalk®digital
UHF (NX-340U16P) 16-channel model has 99. Both models
have 39 QT tones and 168 DQT codes in analog mode
and 64 RAN codes in digital mode.

PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTION KEYS
Both PF Keys can be programmed for any of the many
functions available, permitting customization to suit your
specific requirements.
HIGH SECURITY
Confidentiality in radio communications is a Kenwood
priority, and helping to maintain a high level of security
in analog mode is a 16-code voice inversion scrambler,
while robust NXDN®encryption is available with 32,767
selectable digital modes.
WIRELESS CLONING
This feature simplifies the setting up of multiple ProTalk
radios for identical functions, eliminating the need to
customize individual radios. (Dealer function only)
