Key Features

📡 Dual-Band VHF & UHF

Supports:

• VHF: 136–174 MHz
• UHF: 400–470 MHz
• Same-frequency simplex and different-frequency simplex operation
• Convenient UV band switching

💾 500 Channel Capacity

Store up to 500 channels with frequency and related channel information, making it easier to organize different communication groups and operating frequencies.

🔎 Built-In Frequency Measurement

The RT-820W includes a frequency measurement and decoding function. When another radio is transmitting, the RT-820W can measure the frequency and store the result into a channel, making it easier to quickly set up communication with compatible radios.

👥 Quick Team Formation

The Quick Team function allows multiple compatible radios to quickly synchronize to a common channel.

One radio can act as the transmitter while other radios enter Quick Team Reception mode. After synchronization, members of the same group can communicate with each other.

• Radio alias/name display
• Caller name display
• Local group communication
• Digital voice password
• Digital anti-cracking function

The digital voice password can be configured from 0001–8999, and compatible radios must use the same password for communication. The digital anti-cracking function supports numerical coding from 1–49999.

🎙️ CTCSS / DCS

Choose from 50 CTCSS tones and 105 DCS codes for selective communication and reduced unwanted traffic from other users sharing the same frequency.

📞 DTMF Signaling

The RT-820W supports DTMF signaling with 16 codes, including encoding, decoding, and dialing list configuration for selective calling applications.

🚨 2-Tone & 5-Tone Signaling

2-tone and 5-tone signaling can be used for selective calling and triggering specific operations. The function is suitable for applications such as alarms, scheduling, coordination, and emergency communication.
