Vertex VX-160 Product Description
Housed inside a high-impact case, the diecast chassis of the VX-160 provides a solid, rugged foundation for the VX-160's circuitry. Built to survive in the real world of factory, construction site, or fleet use, the VX-160 will provide many years of reliable communications. To maximize battery life, the VX-160 includes both transmit- and receive-mode battery savers. On transmit, the portable will reduce power when the incoming signal is very strong. On receive, the radio will put itself into a
pulsing "sleep" mode, periodically checking for channel activity.
