LPE-200 is a synthesized, microprocessor-based,
high performance portable FM radio providing
reliable two-way communications in the Enhanced

and ProVoice radio features and multiple
communications modes including digital. Depending
on the customer's needs, the LPE-200 is available in
both System and Scan Modes.
