Description
Complete vehicle communication system bundling professional UHF radio with antenna for immediate offroad deployment
The Oricom UHF390R4X4 Offroad Pack delivers a complete vehicle communication solution by bundling the compact UHF390R 5-watt transceiver with the ANU856 3dBi antenna system. This comprehensive package eliminates the need to source compatible components separately, providing everything required for professional-grade 4WD communications in a single purchase.
The UHF390R micro-sized transceiver features heavy-duty controller speaker microphone, instant replay recording up to 10 minutes, tri-colour backlit LCD display, and advanced functions including duplex repeater access, priority scanning, and 38 CTCSS/104 DCS privacy codes. The rugged design suits harsh Australian conditions, manufactured in Korea to demanding standards. Paired with the ANU856 detachable 665mm fiberglass antenna with barrel spring base, this system provides reliable communications for convoy coordination, worksite operations, touring groups, and emergency contact across typical UHF CB ranges.
The bundle includes extension cables for flexible microphone mounting, complete antenna accessories with 4.5m coaxial cable, and all necessary connectors. Whether fitting out a new touring rig, upgrading existing communications, or equipping a work vehicle fleet, this offroad pack streamlines installation and ensures component compatibility from the start.
