It features intuitive voice prompting, voting, frame-specific audio delay, adaptive squelch, headphone equalization and multiple power options, all in a lightweight, robust and easy-to-use device.

The VRX1 operates in the VHF 192-217 MHz frequency range and is pre-programmed with 10 standard channels. The unit is compatible with Comtek BST 75-216, BST 25-216 and M-216 transmitters, enabling you to combine the VRX1 with other IFB receivers in your installation.
