Peerless Performance, Raised to the Power of Two Kenwood�s astonishing
TM-V708A dual-band (144/440MHz) transceiver
has a dual personality:
it can receive 2 frequencies simultaneously�even
on
the same band. It�s packed with such convenient features as 200 memory
channels,
a memory bank scan function, and a large dot-matrix LCD. And the front panel
is fully detached to allow for versatile installation in cars.
DUAL RECEIVE ON SAME BAND (VxV, UxU)
In addition to simultaneous receive on VHF and UHF bands, the TM-V708A
can receive two frequencies on the very same band. This means, for
example, that you can have both the call channel and local channel, or the
repeater channel and local channel, on the same band.
�FIVE-IN-ONE�
PROGRAMMABLE MEMORY
To suit different situations, the TM-V708A has a programmable memory
that can store five entire operating profiles, ready for instant recall at
the
push of a button. Each profile includes such settings as positive/negative
display mode, dimmer level, frequency range, and memory mode.
200 MULTIFUNCTION MEMORY CHANNELS
Enjoy capacity as well as versatility: there are 200 split memory channels
for storing essential data � transmit and receive frequencies, frequency
step, tone frequency, etc. And for greater convenience, you can opt to
identify each channel with up to 8 alphanumeric characters (Memory Name
function). MULTIPLE
SCAN
In addition to VFO scan, program scan, MHz scan, memory scan and call
scan, the TM-V708A has a memory bank scan that allows you to select
which of the 10 memory banks to scan. Another attractive feature is visual
scan: by automatically checking above and below the frequency currently
in use, and graphing the results on the LCD, this is handy for searching out
open channels. Also featured are scan resume (time-operated, carrieroperated,
and seek), memory channel lockout, tone scan, CTCSS scan,
and DCS scan. 104-CODE
DIGITAL CODE SQUELCH
In addition to CTCSS (38 EIA Standard subtone frequencies) and 1750MHz
tone burst, the TM-V708A is equipped for DCS (Digital Code Squelch, 104
codes). Pick a DCS code and you can be sure that the squelch will only
open for reception when the other party uses the same code.
ADVANCED INTERCEPT POINT (VHF band)
AIP is available for the 144MHz band to minimize intermod or adjacent
channel interference. SMOOTH
OPERATION
Thanks to the 188x54 dot large LCD display, a wealth of information is made
available in an easy-to-see format. And the multifunction keys � identified
with the function key display � further enhance operating ease since only
the
relevant keys are labeled at any one time. And with the optional VS-3 voice
synthesizer installed, key operations are audibly announced.
QUICK-RELEASE DETACHED FRONT PANEL
The smart metallic grey control panel is fully detached, so the main unit
can be installed out of sight up to 3 meters away (further using the
optional
PG-4X extended cable kit). Special brackets are supplied for easy mounting
and quick release of the panel.
