Features The Alinco DJ-X2000 is a professional multifunctional receiver which covers a wide band of radio media from the low-frequency band (LF) to ultrahighfrequency (UHF) band. It has the following features: 1. Wide frequency range The DJ-X2000 covers a wide frequency range from 0.1 to 2149.999950 MHz. 2. Three operating modes The DJ-X2000 has three basic operating modes: Dual VFO, Memory (MR), and Scan Programming (PMS). The modes can be switched by one-touch operation. 3.
11. Frequency editing You can copy the content of one memory channel to another, or rename memory channels. 12. Transweeper™ The DJ-X2000 detects a listening microphone which transmits a radio wave from a hidden transmitter. If a listening microphone is found, the DJ-X2000 will alert you with a display and warning sound. 13. Recording function The DJ-X2000 records the sound of a currently received signal or sound from the microphone, and replays it. The maximum recording time is 160 seconds. 14.
