The multi-purpose System 600 HF SSB radio is designed to fulfill Lon-haul Land Mobile communication requirements. Though many radios can be adapted for more than one application, the System 600 is well-suited as a mobile or base station. Since the System 600 was envisioned as a multi-purpose radio from the beginning, the technology, engineering and manufacturing is the foundation of solid, functional design. For military dispatches from remote outposts, staying in touch from an offshore drilling rig or lonely forestry lockout, and as a governmental emergency backup system, the multi-purpose System 600 is indispensable.
