Description
RA89R High Power Dual Band Handheld Ham Radio with Bluetooth APP Programming
The Retevis RA89R is a high-power, dual-band ham radio that delivers exceptional performance in tackling communication barriers. With its cross-band repeater function, it bridges UHF and VHF systems, while Bluetooth app programming enables wireless control, eliminating the complexities of fragmented networks and traditional setups. The RA89R also supports both charging and programming via a single USB Type-C cable, offering unmatched convenience. Ideal for outdoor explorers, emergency responders, and road travelers, it provides a reliable and seamless communication solution for staying connected and maintaining control in remote or demanding conditions.
Repeater Communicator
The cross-band repeater function in the RA89R allows the radio to temporarily act as a repeater between two different frequency bands, such as VHF and UHF. This means it can receive signals on one frequency and retransmit them on another, effectively bridging different radio systems or communication gaps in areas with limited signal coverage.
Bluetooth APP Programming & Audio
Manage your radio wirelessly via Bluetooth connection to your Android smartphone. The dedicated app allows you to program frequencies, channels, and all advanced settings remotely, offering unparalleled convenience for field adjustments or fleet management. You can also pair it with Bluetooth headsets for clear, hands-free audio, extending wireless convenience to everyday operation.
(Note: iOS support is under active development and will be released in a future update)
Aviation Reception
The RA89R provides reliable reception of aviation transmissions in the 118-137 MHz airband, allowing you to monitor real-time communications between aircraft and Air Traffic Control (ATC). It keeps you connected to vital aviation broadcasts, enhancing safety and ensuring up-to-date information for both aviation enthusiasts and those operating in outdoor environments.
High Power Output
Tackle distance and obstacles with flexible power output. The RA89R offers selectable power levels of 10W, 5W, 2W, and 1W, allowing you to optimize for range or battery conservation as needed. With up to 10W of transmission power, the RA89R ensures clear, reliable communication, even in challenging environments. Whether you're working in urban areas, open fields, or rugged terrains, this helps your team stay connected over long distances, cutting through interference and ensuring your message gets through.
All-Day Power
With a 2800mAh battery, the RA89R delivers up to 15.2 hours of continuous use. Recharging is fast and convenient via the USB Type-C port (5V/2A), minimizing downtime and keeping you ready for long shifts and keeping you connected throughout the day.
Dual PTT Control
Manage two communication lines simultaneously with the Dual PTT control. This allows you to communicate with separate teams or manage multiple channels effortlessly. The instant switching between lines ensures seamless communication without delays, boosting team coordination and responsiveness.
Environment Adaptation
The RA89R is designed to optimize clarity, range, and battery life based on your specific environment. Whether you're in an urban jungle, remote location, or dealing with extreme weather, its selectable Wide/Mid/Narrow bandwidth options help fine-tune the device for maximum performance in any situation.
Efficient Channel Management
Stay on top of multiple channels at once with Dual Band and Dual Standby capabilities. The RA89R provides clear, independent management of two channels, each with its own display, ensuring that your communication stays organized and efficient. This is perfect for teams working across different frequencies or locations.
200 Channels Capacity
Organize your communication with ease by storing up to 200 channels in the RA89R. You can categorize channels by team, location, or mission type, making it easy to switch between different groups and environments with just a few clicks.
Selective Calling: 2-Tone/5-Tone
The RA89R supports 2-Tone/5-Tone signaling, offering the ability to make both single and group calls. This reduces channel congestion and improves communication efficiency, enabling targeted communication without interrupting other users on the same frequency.
Dual Alert System
With the Dual Alert System, the RA89R is equipped to help you respond to emergencies. The local and remote emergency alarms provide a comprehensive safety solution, triggering loud alerts and notifications across all team radios. Whether you're in the field or on-site, this system ensures you're prepared to act quickly in critical situations.
NOAA Weather Alert
Retevis RA89R supports NOAA weather alert (US Version Only), providing real-time updates on sudden weather changes. It continuously monitors NOAA weather channels and automatically triggers an audible alert for critical weather events—keeping you informed of critical weather changes without requiring active channel monitoring.
Custom VFO Scan Range
Customize your VFO scanning range by setting specific start and stop frequencies, allowing you to focus on the most relevant bands. This greatly improves scanning precision, making it ideal for tracking key signals and monitoring specific communication channels. Narrowing the scan to your selected range ensures more efficient and targeted signal acquisition, optimizing the overall monitoring performance.
CTCSS/DCS
Ensure private and interference-free communication on shared frequencies. The RA89R is equipped with CTCSS and DCS, ensuring that communication remains secure and private. Your radio will only open audio for transmissions from others using the same code, effectively filtering out unwanted conversations and noise, which guarantees clear, uninterrupted communication in remote or demanding conditions.
VOX Hands-Free Operation
The VOX (Voice-Activated Transmission) feature enables hands-free operation, allowing you to transmit without pressing the PTT button. VOX is particularly useful in environments where you need both hands free to operate equipment or engage in outdoor activities, ensuring uninterrupted communication.
Design and Layout
The RA89R features a rugged, ergonomic design that’s built to withstand the elements while remaining comfortable for long-term use. From the intuitive control buttons to the clear display, every part of the radio is crafted for simplicity and reliability, making it perfect for demanding environments.
