Got a call the other day from a 911 Director
looking for alternative products suitable for use as fixed station
monitors. Some folks use the Minitor V
with the amplified charger and external antenna connector. Others use the our 2TR9. Both have their limitations. Neither can
monitor more than 4 page codes. Our user wanted to monitor 8 frequencies with
two different codes per channel. So much for Minitor V and the 2TR9!
The TM-610 Scanning Page Monitor with an AC wall
power module can do the job and it’s only $325 programmed and ready to go with your choice of VHF or UHF. The 5 watt audio from the internal speaker
is much better than the 2 watt output of the 2TR9 or 2.5 watts for the Minitor
V audio amplifier charger. The warranty
is better too! 2 years versus 1 year
for the Minitor V or 2TR9.
Here’s some more good news! The TM-610 is capable of receiving text
messages using the popular MDC-1200 messaging system and it has an external
audio output for connection to a PA system amplifier. A 13 watt high power remote speaker is optionally available for
only $74 additional.
If you are looking for the best, and most
affordable fixed station monitor, look no further than Falcon Direct! For more information, give us a call at
