THE NEW GENERATION DUAL BAND HANDHELD

144 / 430 MHz DUAL BAND HANDHELD WITH WIDE BAND RECEPTION

The FT-60R’s small size allows you to take it anywhere - hiking,
skiing, or while walking around town - and its operating flexibility
brings the user many avenues of operating enjoyment. Its
incredibly tiny FNB-83 Rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery
Pack provides up to 5 Watts of transmit power on the 144 MHz and
430 MHz Amateur Bands. Besides 144- and 430-MHz transceive
operation, the FT-60R provides receive coverage of the VHF and
UHF TV bands, the VHF AM aircraft band, and a wide range of
commercial and public safety frequencies!

NEW FEATURES ON THE FT-60R

New and exciting features of the FT-60R are the Emergency
Automatic ID (EAI) function, that will automatically cause your FT­60R

to transmit your callsign and engage your rigs microphone,
even if you are disabled and unable to press the PTT switch;
Enhanced Paging and Code Squelch (EPCS), that allows you to
page a particular station and only receive calls from that station, if
desired; and a security Password feature, to prevent unauthorized
use of your transceiver.
