Kenwood TH-D7A(G) Portable Amateur Radio

Kenwood goes beyond the limits of what today's Amateurs expect from a radio. The TH-D7A is equipped with a built-in AX.25 TNC for simple packet operation or to be used with a handheld GPS (NMEA-0183 compatible) as a full function APRS(TM) Automatic Packet/Position Reporting System. The TH-D7A is capable of reporting exact position, speed and heading as well as calculation of distance to destination. The TH-D7A can also be used for APRS(TM) messaging to send up to 45 character messages through APRS(TM) or APRS(TM) Internet gateways without the use of a PC. The new unique jog/cursor key makes navigation through the TH-D7A features a breeze. The TH-D7A now makes DATA communications simple and easy.
