the same exept for output power. |
Ranger Communications once again sets the
performance and reliability standard for entry level amateur mobile
transceivers with the latest generation of our popular RCI-2950DX/70
series of cost effective, multi mode, high performance transceivers.
Introducing the new RCI-2950DX & RCI-2970N2. These new models
feature microprocessor control of not one but two amateur bands. The
new RCI-2950DX, rated at 25W PEP and the RCI-2970N2, rated at 200W
PEP are perfect for the recent band openings on 10 and 12 meters.
Now you can upgrade your mobile Ham capabilities with a radio that
is rich in features and reasonable in cost.
The new models have retained the operating features of its popular
predecessors, including programmable repeater offset and
capabilities for a CTCSS tone option — great for increasing repeater
activity on 10 meters — and receiver scanning for quick search of
active frequencies. The units offer three methods of frequency
selection, non-volatile memory to store and scan up to ten favorite
frequencies, and front panel frequency selector lockout
In addition, the DX Series offers an impressive array
of design and performance improvements:

-
An improved
receiver: designed for increased sensitivity and image
rejections.
-
A double FET
balanced mixer: for improved receiver inter-modulation rejection.
-
New power supply
protection: and temperature compensation for improved stability
and reliability over wide temperature ranges.
-
Surface mount
components: for increased resistance to shock and vibration.
-
Improved display
lighting: for easy reading in a wide range of light conditions.
-
Variable Power
Output from 150 watts to 2 watts - great for PSK-31 operation.
