❚ Voice guide & storage unit (option)
The VGS-1 voice guide and storage unit can serve two
important roles: vocal confirmation of frequency, key
operation, etc., and recording/playback of messages
received by the transceiver. A total of 90 seconds (3 x

and stored in Flash ROM for
playback and transmission.
Additionally, a convenient
