The CT-590 S is Midland’s new dual-band amateur radio. Easy to use, it’s ideal for those who need a “basic” unit that still offers a range of functions and features to make it a complete package. Its aluminum chassis ensures durability and reliability. The CT-590 S operates on the VHF 144–146 MHz and UHF 430–440 MHz frequency bands and features 128 programmable channels. Its high performance ensures excellent communication even over long distances, thanks in part to the 1750 Hz tone for accessing repeaters. The CT 590 S features a flashlight, an FM radio receiver (87.5–108 MHz), 50 CTCSS tones, and 208 DCS codes, which allow you to create “subchannels” to communicate with a small group of people. The CT 590 S also allows you to customize your ID (ANI-ID) and send it during transmission (PTT-ID). The LCD screen offers a choice of 3 different backlight colors, each corresponding to a specific mode of operation (receive, transmit, etc.). The radio can also be programmed using the optional PRG-10 software to configure and customize various functions, such as the number of channels, frequency, etc.
