Built to meet or exceed the requirements of the U.S. MIL-STD 810 C/D/E standards, the VX-180 is designed to survive under difficult operating conditions of shock, vibration, and driving rain. Cost-performance begins with durability, and the Mil-Spec toughness of the VX-180 is your guarantee or its design quality.

Housed inside a high-impact case, the diecast chassis of the VX-160 provides a solid, rugged foundation for the VX-160's circuitry. Built to survive in the real world of factory, construction site, or fleet use, the VX-160 will provide many years of reliable communications.

Customization of feature access is easily accomplished at the time of programming. Flexibility in assignment of features ensures compatibility with existing system requirements.

High-performance Encoder/Decoder circuits for both CTCSS and Digital Code Squelch are provided, for access to tone/code controlled systems.
DCS is ideal for crowded RF environments, providing superior immunity from false opening of squelch.

The VX-160 includes a DTMF Automatic Number Identifier (ANI) circuit, which will respond to an incoming ANI burst for selective paging of an individual portable.

The radio has built in capability to encode
and decode 5,6 or 7 tone selective calling
codes in 11 different tone formats.
Features such as Stun/kill/revive and
emergency modes are supported.

This built in feature allows you to decode up to two, 2-tone pairs per channel.
These can be used for two individual pager calls, or one for Individual and
one for Group call.

included in ine VX-160 is Vertex Standard's exclusive ARTS™ feature,
which can be critically important in search-and-rescue applications. ARTS™ provides a "hand-shake" with other ARTS™ equipped transceivers, and the display indicates if an "Out of Range" condition exists. The base station can then alert the field unit to move to a better location.

To maximize battery life, the VX-160 includes both transmit- and receive-
mode battery savers. On transmit, the portable will reduce power when the
incoming signal is very strong. On receive, the radio will put itself into a
pulsing "sleep" mode, periodically checking for channel activity.

The channel and feature configurations are easily programmed in minutes
by the dealer, using the optional CT-42A Programming Cable and CE44
Programming Software.

For quick programming of VX-160 radios for fleet use, the "Clone" feature
allows copying of all channel and other configuration data from one VX-160
to another, using the optional CT-27 Cloning Cable.

Ideal for reception in noisy environments, the VX-160's high-powered audio
is coupled to a large internal speaker, assuring solid copy throughout difficult
construction site or field operations.

To facilitate efficient channel management, the VX-160 provides Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO) and Busy Tone Lock-Out (BTLO) features. What's more, the transmitter's Time-Out Timer (TOT) function prevents a "stuck microphone" condition from jamming a channel for an extended period of time.

The high-speed scanning capability of the VX-160 includes "All-Channel" scanning, plus Dual Watch and Priority Channel capability. And with "Follow-Me" scanning, a designated channel may be watched during scanning of other channels.
