ICOM T90A

Icom T90A

The commercial grade Icom T90A transmits on 6 meters, 2 meters and 440 MHz. The T90A is also a wide band AM, FM and Wide FM scanning receiver. Not only can you hear your favorite TV programs (until 02/14/09) with the preprogrammed TV channels, but you can also listen to short-wave, AM and FM broadcast radio stations, police, fire, military, aircraft, various amateur bands and more. Receive coverage is 495 kHz to 999.990 MHz (less cellular). With 500 alphanumeric memory channels, plus 50 band edges and 5 call channels, the IC-T90A is a dream radio! But, with ICOM's new DMS (Dynamic Memory Scan) technology, the IC-T90A makes the dream a reality. With the maximum of 18 banks or 99 channels per bank, you can pick and choose any desired channel for scanning from 500 available memories. This compact radio is comfortable in the smallest of hands, and offers full radio control for large fingers. The rugged die-cast aluminum chassis is designed for the most demanding environments with JIS-4 specification for weather resistance.

A standard feature of the IC-T90A is both DTCS and CTCSS encode and decode capability. Don't know what tone is used? Don't worry; the tone scan feature will identify the appropriate tone frequency. Choose from either 104 DTCS or 50 CTCSS codes for receive and transmit, individually. The new Weather Alert Scan capability checks active weather stations for NWS alert activity even while you monitor local repeater communications.

Simple, one-handed operation is the most valuable feature of the IC-T90A. The backlit ten-key pad allows you to enter frequency, memory number and various other features. While the tuning knob can be customized for either channel selection or volume control. There is no cumbersome function key on the T-90A!

The T90A operates from 6 to 16 VDC and is only 2.3x3.5x1.25 inches 8.5 oz (58x87x29mm 240g). The ICOM T90A comes with a BP-217 Li-Ion battery, BC110A wall charger, wrist strap, MB-83 Swivel belt clip and SMA flexible antenna (with 6m adapter). An informative owners manual is included along with a separate Ham Radio Terms manual. Please see the January 2003 issue of QST for a great review on this easy-to-use HT!

Motorola Radius GR1225 repeater

Product Description

You can have X-Pand and all the advantages of a Motorola Repeater with the GR1225. With 16 programmable channels, you can talk on either a 25 or a 12.5 kHz channel allowing a seamless, economical transition to the narrower bandwidth. Two-way users won't want to be without this greatly expanded audio quality at 12.5 kHz. The GR1225 makes a perfect complement to the 1225 Series Two-Way Radios.

Motorola GR1225 Features

The Motorola GR1225 Repeater has the following features:

  • 12.5/25 kHz Switchable Channel Spacing - with X-Pand Technology
  • Compact Styling - The GR1225 accommodates a built-in power supply as well as numerous internally housed accessories such as a duplexer, battery revert and an enhanced controller.
  • Adjustable Power - Each channel can be programmed to either 25 or 45 (UHF) or 25 or 50 (VHF) watts to meet various coverage needs.
  • 2-Character Numeric LED Display - Green light illuminates the channel that's in use.
  • Battery Back-Up Tone - When the battery revert kit is installed, it alerts users that they are operating on the back-up battery supply.
  • Time-Out Timer - Programmable from 1-255 seconds, this feature prevents a group from monopolizing the repeater with a single transmission.
  • Repeater Enable/Disable - Temporarily enables or disables repeater operation from the front panel to allow use as a base station for dispatch operation.
  • CWID (Continuous Wave Identification) - Continuous Wave Identification uses Morse code to automatically send out the station ID to identify the transmitting repeater.
  • Courtesy Beep - This programmable alert indicates when a person is through talking so that other users are free to respond.
  • Programmable Relay Delay - This hangtime keeps the repeater transmitter keyed from 0 to 7 seconds after the radio user releases the Push-to talk switch to enable other users to respond without having to re-activate the repeater.
  • AdvantagePort Expandability - Allow an authorized dealer to add an Advantage Board to upgrade the repeater functionality.
