VHF TYT TH-UVF8

The TH-UVF8 stands out not only for its technical specifications and performance but also for its design. Its dynamic lines, combined with easy access to its functions, make it a particularly capable device. It features voice prompts, a scrambler, 2-tone/5-tone signalling, and an FM radio receiver.

It is a dual-band handheld transceiver operating on the VHF and UHF bands, with dual-frequency display supporting V/U, U/V, U/U, and V/V combinations, as well as dual standby operation. It has two VFOs and 128 memory channels. It supports both FM and NFM modulation and includes a complete set of CTCSS and DCS transmit and receive tones.

For amateur radio use, in addition to subtones, it supports ± frequency shift up to 100 MHz and multiple tuning step sizes. With dedicated software, available free from the manufacturer's website, it can be locked to operate only within the amateur radio bands.

For professional operation, it also supports 2-tone and 5-tone signalling. In addition, for specialised applications, the transceiver can be configured to disable reception, transmission, or both simultaneously.

The package includes a 1600 mAh Li-ion battery, a desktop automatic charger with power supply, an antenna, a belt clip, and a wrist strap.

The front panel simultaneously displays two frequencies, along with numerous other indicators showing the transceiver's selected settings and operating status. The numeric keypad also incorporates the Up/Down keys, a VFO/MEM selection key, and a dedicated key for activating the FM broadcast radio receiver. In addition to the physical buttons, many of the transceiver's functions can be configured through the menu system, which is accessed simply by pressing the Function key and selecting the desired menu number.
