Radio Overview
This manual is applicable to the Viking
®
 Mobile radios. The availability of many of the 
features is controlled by the model of your radio, factory coding of your radio, installed 
options, firmware version, and field programming.
Figure 1.1
Viking Mobile Radio (Lightning Control Head)
Depending on the specific model (and options), the Viking mobile radio operates in the 
700/800 (762-870 MHz) frequency range.
Note
As of January 2013, the FCC has mandated all UHF/VHF radios shall not allow 
wideband (25 kHz) mode. Federal frequencies are not under FCC jurisdiction; therefore, 
Federal customers can continue to order wideband in VHF and UHF. This mandate does 
not affect 800 MHz and can continue to have wideband after January 1, 2013. This option 
shall prevent UHF/VHF radios bought after January 1, 2013 from operating in wideband 
mode.
