Fleetwood Digital Retevis RA79 (UV-K5) Multiband Ham Radio with Scanner & Frequency Counter
Meet the game-changer for Canadian amateur operators and radio hobbyists. The Retevis RA79 (UV-K5) isn't just another dual-band radio; it's a multi-band powerhouse that redefines what a handheld can do. This is the "Swiss Army Knife" of portable radios, packed with features for scanning, experimenting, and everyday ham use.
Why choose the RA79? It's a full-featured scanner, a powerful ham transceiver, and a frequency counter—all in one rugged unit. Listen in on air bands (AM), copy a frequency from a nearby radio in seconds, and charge it anywhere with its modern USB-C port. This is the ultimate all-in-one device for radio exploration.
The RA79 (UV-K5) Advantage
- 📡 Full-Band "Scanner Mode" Reception: Go beyond ham bands. The RA79 receives an incredibly wide range of frequencies (50-600MHz), letting you listen to air, marine, FRS, GMRS, public service (non-encrypted), and more.
- ✨ One-Touch Frequency Counter: This is the feature you've been waiting for. Instantly read and save the frequency from another radio. Just put it near a transmitting radio, press a button, and the RA79 automatically tunes to that frequency.
- ✈️ Air Band (AM) Reception: Listen to aviation traffic at your local airport with the dedicated AM receiving mode (108-136MHz).
- ⚡ Wireless Frequency Copy: Quickly clone frequencies from one RA79 to another without any cables. Perfect for getting your club or group on the same page instantly.
- 🔌 Modern USB-C Charging: Ditch the proprietary cradles. Charge your radio at home, in the car, or with a power bank using the built-in USB-C charging port.
- 🖥️ Large Colour Display: The vibrant 1.77" colour screen makes it easy to see both your A and B bands, channel names, and all menu settings.
🎁 Exclusive Bonus: The Fleetwood Digital Quick-Start Guide
Frustrated by tiny, confusing manuals poorly written? We've got you covered.
This radio includes our exclusive, custom-written programming guide. Printed on full-size paper (easy to read!), this step-by-step guide teaches you how to:
- ✅ Program Manually: Enter frequencies via the keypad—no computer required.
- ✅ Set Up Repeaters: Easily enter offsets and CTCSS/DCS tones.
- ✅ Save Channels: Store your settings into the radio's memory.
- ✅ Simplex Operation: Set up direct radio-to-radio communication.
🔌 Please Note: Power Adapter Not Included
Following industry practice, this radio includes a USB-C charging cable but no longer comes with a 110V USB wall adapter (power brick).
