A mobile radio setup needs an antenna and coax connection, and radios on different frequencies cannot communicate with each other. Exposure to water and radio frequency interference can also affect the installation. Universal fit - not built for one specific make or model, so confirm mounting space and wiring on your machine before ordering. The M1 transmits at 55 watts on the digital and analog VHF band. Its aluminum chassis reflects radio frequency interference, while the Rugged Ready port connects to Rugged intercoms and accessories.
