Specna Arms – Manual Dual-Channel Shortie-82 Radio (VHF / UHF) 

Shortie-82 was created in cooperation with Baofeng and is a so-called duobander, i.e. a radio that operates in two frequency ranges – VHF and UHF. However, the double band is not all that this device has to offer. The Shortie-82 model features more doubled elements, making it a very universal tool for radio communication, both in the air, on land and at sea. 

Features of the radio: 

– PTT button that allows you to change the transmission channel without the need to manually switch channels,
– FM radio will automatically switch from reception in the 76-108MHz range as soon as a signal appears on the selected VFO A and B channels,
– possibility to operate on a selected band, on two different frequencies (transmission / listening on the main frequency + listening on the auxiliary frequency),
– blocking of transmission on a occupeid channel,
– voice confirmation of the operation,
– manual keypad lock,
– energy saving mode,
– programming from a computer via RS or USB,
– most of the functions have assigned keyboard shortcuts, so there is no need to go through the multi-level menu each time,
– backlit LCD screen which, apart from alphanumeric characters, also displays icons confirming the status of most of the built-in functions,
– the housing is made of a thick layer of hard plastic, which significantly increases the mechanical resistance,
– operation temperature range from -20 * C up to + 60 * C,
