Store Demo Yaesu FT-270R 5w 2m Handheld S/N 9D640127

The FT-270R provides 5 Watts of solid power

Want a handheld with a display you can actually see?! The FT-270R is the handheld for you.

The FT-270R conforms to IPX7 specifications for submersibility (submersion for up to 30 minutes at a depth of one meter).

The FT-270R's hefty 800 mW of audio provides plenty of volume when operating in a noisy environment.

The FT-270R is supplied with a long-life 1400 mAh Ni-MH Battery Pack, for extended operating time during search-and-rescue or public service event operations.

The FT-270R design includes Yaesu's exclusive power saving circuit design to ensure longer operating time that most other handhelds with comparable batteries.

The receiver's frequency range is 136-174 MHz, covering many public service, marine, and government channels.

To prevent an unauthorized person from using your FT-270R, you may engage a security password that must be keyed in prior to operation, if you like.

The 200 memories may be partitioned into as many as 10 memory groups. Alpha-numeric labeling is available on all memories.

Operating frequencies may be entered directly from the front panel keypad, which may also be used for quick recall of memory channels by number.

In the U.S. version, a dedicated special memory bank of ten NOAA Weather Channels is available, with a "Severe Weather" alert capability.

Besides the usual CTCSS and DCS Encode/Decode features you've come to know and love on a Yaesu transceiver, the FT-270R includes a "Split Tone" capability that allows you to Encode a CTCSS tone, and Decode DCS, or vice-versa. You can also Encode (without decoding) either CTCSS or DCS.
