Stop trying to find a place for a massive mobile radio. The Retevis RT98 is an ultra-compact, simple-to-use radio that fits where others can't. At roughly the size of a man's palm, this 15-watt VHF radio is the perfect solution for small cars, side-by-sides, or any installation where space is your biggest concern.
This is the ideal "first mobile" for new ham radio operators. It's simple, affordable, and provides 15 watts of power—a 3x boost over a 5W handheld—to reliably hit your local 2-Meter repeaters. The bright, clear display and simple controls make it a breeze to use on the go.
