Boasting high-quality specs and convenient features, Kenwood’s FreeTalk

XL adds a dose of fun to

your activities anywhere and anytime.

■ Die-Cast Chassis & Meets

Military Standards

The aluminum die-cast chassis provides exceptional strength for rough handling that, when combined with a rugged and sealed case design, enable the FreeTalk®XL to provide years of reliable use. The FreeTalk®XL also meets MIL-STD 810 C, D & E environmental specifications for Vibration, Shock, Humidity, Dust, and Light Rain.

■ Small & Lightweight

Carry the FreeTalk®XL in your pocket or on a belt and you’ll hardly notice it’s there because it’s so small and lightweight (approximately 11 oz. and 5 inches in height).

■ Simple Operation/

Rugged Controls

Simply turn it on and push to talk. Each FreeTalk®XL has an on/off power volume setting knob to adjust audio to a comfortable listening level. A monitor button is also provided to check for other users’ activity. For added convenience, the two-color LED indicator lights red for transmit and green for an active channel.

■ 2 Watts Transmit Power/ Range

Up To 5 Miles

The 2 watts of power that FreeTalk®XL has to offer allows direct radio-to-radio communications on the same frequency (simplex) for up to 5 miles*.

■ Brass Reinforced Antenna Port

The sealed heavy-duty “SMA” antenna connector and high-gain durable antenna of the FreeTalk®XL provide excellent strength for optimum range.

■ Includes 8-Hour Battery Pack,

Desktop Charger & Belt Clip

The sealed rechargeable NiCd battery pack slides on quickly and easily to the radio. This means that you don’t have to contend with cumbersome latches and there are no battery compartment lids to lose or break. Charging a radio with battery installed or a spare battery pack is a simple drop-in task with the supplied desktop charger. A long-use, 10-hour KNB-15A battery option is also available and the spring beltclip mounts directly to the body chassis.

■ Time-Out timer

When the continuous transmit limit of 3 minutes is reached, the time-out timer automatically switches the FreeTalk®XL to receive operation. This limits per transmission talk time of each unit to help reduce channel congestion and conserve battery power.

■ Battery Saver

■ Low Battery Alert

■ Powerful Audio

■ Protected Accessory Port

*The range of the FreeTalk®XL will vary depending on terrain, obstructions and other conditions.
