Introduction
The Vertex VX-210AU is a compact hand portable trans-
ceiver for the UHF land mobile band that offers the conve-
nience of small size, light weight, and simple operation.
The VX-210AU can be simply programmed by your
Vertex Dealer with up to 16 channels for single and split
frequency operation. The VX-210AU provides up to 5
watts of RF output power and includes a flexible quick-
connect antenna.
The transceiver and Ni-Cd battery packs are construct-
ed of thick high-impact polycarbonate plastic, with spe-
cial attention paid by the designers to tight seals and rug-
gedness, assuring years of reliable operation even in harsh
environments.
The following pages describe the operation, features
and accessories of the VX-210AU. With proper care and
operation, the transceiver will provide many years of re-
liable communications.
