Kenwood TK-372G User Manual

industrial standards, meeting or exceeding the tough environmental standards used by 
the U.S. Department of Defense. These radios pass U.S. MIL-STD 810 C/D/E standards 
covering shock, vibration, humidity, dust, and rain, for reliable performance in even the 
toughest conditions.

The monocoque aluminum die-cast chassis-heat sinks borrows a 
principal from aircraft construction for rigid strength. Surrounding this 
and forming an integral part of the chassis, is the super-tough 
polycarbonate case to provide years of durability. The heavy-duty belt 
clip and antenna mount are also integrated into the chassis for 
strengthened unit construction.

Integrated elements like gasket seals and the polyvinyl speaker cone prevent moisture 
penetration for confident wet weather use.

Kenwood employs the lastest in surface-mount techniques, multi-layer epoxy PCBs, 
advanced integrated circuits and hybrid components to ensure that the TK-272G_372G 
portables provide rugged, power-efficient performance.

The Compandor noise-reduction feature enhances audio clarity on narrow bandwidth 
systems and is programmable per channel. Voice intelligence components are amplified 
and compressed at the transmit end then re-expanded on the receive end to reproduce 
the original audio signal.

The antenna's industry-standard SMA connector provides improved mechanical and 
electrical performance.

A large 1-3/8 inch speaker provides 500 mW audio output. This enables the user to hear 
transmissions clearly even in the noisiest environments.
