One Touch Squelch Control
Breaking the squelch threshold has never been easier. Press the monitor (MON) button for two seconds and the Pro V's squelch remains opened for monitoring weak and distant signals. Pressing MON again restores squelch settings. This is TRUE one handed operation. No need to fumble with tightly spaced concentric knobs.
Receive Battery Saver
This feature is designed to maximize the life of the supplied Ni-Cad battery. When the
Pro V is in the standby mode the battery saver
de-energizes the transceiver's circuitry, waking it up at user-selected intervals to sample for radio activity. If no activity is detected the
Pro V goes back into its sleep mode. Current consumption is minimized while battery life is maximized. This feature is only found on Vertex Standard airband transceivers.
NOAA Weather Channels (USA version only)
The Pro V can receive all 10 NOAA weather broadcast frequencies. Automatic Active Weather Channel Locator (a Vertex Standard exclusive) automatically scans for active NOAA weather stations in your area when WX band is selected.
Menu Mode
The Pro V allows easy access to the Menu ("Set") mode. The "Set" mode is a straightforward and intuitive feature for changing the operating parameters of the Pro V. This allows easy user access to squelch settings, clearing memory information, scanning, scan lamp, keypad beep, battery saver settings, display/Keypad backlighting, and priority channel check time.
