NOTICE
There are no user-serviceable points inside this
transceiver. All service jobs must be referred to your
Authorized Service Center or Network Administrator.
Features
The VX-4000 Series are rugged basic-featured FM
transceivers designed for flexible mobile and base station
business communications in the 50-watts VHF and 40-
watts UHF
A highly integrated surface mount circuit design and a
die-cast aluminum chassis assure reliability. Selectable
power output of LOW(5 – 25 watts) or High (VHF:50watts,
UHF:40watts) without the need of forced air cooling is
possible due to the large heatsink surface area of the
compartmentalized one-piece diecast chassis.
The 250-channels memories can each be programmed
with a 8-character channel name.
A 39-tone programmable CTCSS encoder/decoder is
built in as standard.
A 104 standerd digital codes programmable DCS
encoder/decoder is built in as standard.
Important channel frequency data is stored in EEPROM
and flash memory on the CPU, and is easily
programmable by dealers using a personal computer and
the Yaesu CT-71 Programming Cable and CE-35
Software.
