industrial standards, meeting or exceeding the tough environmental standards used by
the U.S. Department of Defense. These radios pass U.S. MIL-STD 810 C/D/E standards
covering shock, vibration, humidity, dust, and rain, for reliable performance in even the
toughest conditions.
Die-Cast Chassis and Polycarbonate Case
The monocoque aluminum die-cast chassis-heat sinks borrows a
principal from aircraft construction for rigid strength. Surrounding this
and forming an integral part of the chassis, is the super-tough
polycarbonate case to provide years of durability. The heavy-duty belt
clip and antenna mount are also integrated into the chassis for
strengthened unit construction.
Weather-Resistant
Integrated elements like gasket seals and the polyvinyl speaker cone prevent moisture
penetration for confident wet weather use.
Performance
Kenwood employs the lastest in surface-mount techniques, multi-layer epoxy PCBs,
advanced integrated circuits and hybrid components to ensure that the TK-272G_372G
portables provide rugged, power-efficient performance.
Companded Audio
The Compandor noise-reduction feature enhances audio clarity on narrow bandwidth
systems and is programmable per channel. Voice intelligence components are amplified
and compressed at the transmit end then re-expanded on the receive end to reproduce
the original audio signal.
Heavy-Duty Antenna Mount
The antenna's industry-standard SMA connector provides improved mechanical and
electrical performance.
High Output Audio
A large 1-3/8 inch speaker provides 500 mW audio output. This enables the user to hear
transmissions clearly even in the noisiest environments.
