Dual Band Performance (144/430MHz)
The SD-438VU is engineered for reliable communication across both:
-
144MHz (VHF band) – Extended coverage and stable ground communication
-
430MHz (UHF band) – Clear signal transmission in urban or dense environments
Its optimized dual-band structure ensures balanced radiation efficiency across both frequency ranges.
