The Yaesu FTA-750L features an IPX5 waterproof design. Great for flight line personnel. The audio amplifier makes the FTA-750L louder than any other portable transceiver available today (e.g., it is about 35% louder than the Icom IC-A23). The Yaesu FTA-750L is powered by a high capacity 1800 mAh Lithium-Ion battery that will last over 12 hours between charges. 200 memory channels can be easily programmed into the FTA-750L allowing quick access to frequently used channels on the aviation band. Each channel can be programmed into the unit using the included PC programming software and cable. All memory channels can be labeled with a channel assignment number, operating frequency display, or an alphanumeric channel name display. Press the Squelch button for two seconds and the FTA-750L's squelch remains open to monitor weak and distant signals. Pressing Squelch again resets settings. Battery Saver is designed to maximize the transceiver's battery life. When the FTA-750L is in standby mode, battery saver de-energizes the transceiver's circuit, waking up at user-selected intervals to sample for radio activity. If no activity is detected, the FTA-750L returns to its sleep mode. Current consumption is minimized. This feature is only found on Yaesu airband transceivers! The FTA-750L can receive all 10 NOAA weather broadcast frequencies.
