ULTRA RUGGED, SUBMERSIBLE
CASE CONSTRUCTION
The Pilot III is built inside a rugged Aluminium
case, carefully sealed to protect against water
ingress. Built to survive immersion in water for
up to 30 minutes at a depth of three feet, the
Pilot III can keep you communicating even if it
gets wet if you have to ditch!
DIRECT FREQUENCY ENTRY VIA EASY-TO-READ
BACK-LIT KEYPAD
For quick access to operating
frequencies, simply enter the
frequency information directly
from the 16 button keypad, then
press the "Push To Talk" (PTT)
button to transmit. There's
no need to store frequencies
in memory before you can
operate on them.
5 WATTS OF CLEAN POWER OUTPUT
For reliable communications over difficult
communications paths, the VXA-300 provides 5
Watts of transmitter power (1.5 W carrier).
With its excellent audio clarity, the VXA-300's
transmitter will get your message through!
RECEIVER AUDIO PITCH CONTROL
For improved reception under difficult conditions,
the receiver's audio frequency response may be
quickly adjusted by the user, to enhance either
the high-frequency or low-frequency components,
depending on the noise and/or interference
encountered. A Vertex Standard exclusive!
250 MEMORY CHANNELS
The 150 regular memory channels and 100 pre-
programmed "Book" memory channels can
store just about any commonly-used operating
frequencies that you choose. And the memories
may be labeled with an Alpha-numeric title of
up to 8 characters, for easy recognition.
ONE TOUCH SQUELCH CONTROL
Breaking the squelch threshold has never been
easier. Press the monitor (MON) button for two
seconds to open the Pilot III's squelch
continuously. Press MON again to restore the
original squelch settings. This is TRUE one-
handed operation, without the need to fumble
around with tightly spaced concentric knobs.

RECEIVE BATTERY SAVER
This feature is designed to maximize the life of
the transceiver's battery. When the
the standby mode the battery saver de-energizes
the transceiver's circuitry, waking it up at user-
selected intervals to sample for radio activity. If
no activity is detected the
sleep mode. Current consumption is minimized,
thereby maximizing battery life. This feature is
only found on
