TM-281A Description Hide

Whatever the mission, wherever you go, KENWOOD’s TM-281A is a radio you can count on. This compact transceiver delivers powerful mobile performance and such advanced features as multiple scan functions and memory names. High-quality audio is assured by the large speaker. Naturally, MIL-STD compliant toughness ensures rugged reliability. And operating ease is second to none: illuminated keys and a large LCD with adjustable backlighting make for user-friendly operation day or night.

RUGGED, COMPACT CONSTRUCTION

The TM-281A is tough enough for off-road assignments: it meets the strict U.S. Department of Defense MIL-STD 810 C, D, E, F & G environmental standards for vibration and shock. Installation is easy due to its compact dimensions: 160 (W) x 43 (H) x 126 (D)* mm .

* Total depth of 170.5 mm with protrusion

HIGH POWER OUTPUT (65 W)

Even with its compact size, the TM-281A delivers up to 65 watts – the sort of RF power you want in the wilderness – with a choice of High/Low output. A hand microphone is also supplied as standard.

ALPHANUMERIC LCD AND ILLUMINATED KEYPAD

The vivid amber LCD display comes with a 32-step brightness control to suit any ambient light conditions. It displays up to 6 large alphanumeric characters. The front panel keypads are also illuminated for ease of use.

IMPRESSIVE FRONT SPEAKER

The large oval speaker (58 x 35 mm) mounted in the front ensures every message is heard loud and clear.
