The Kenwood RZ-1 is a compact wideband receiver/scanner in car-radio format that tunes continuously from 0.5 to 905 MHz across shortwave, VHF and UHF. It handles AM, FM and wideband FM in stereo and holds 100 memory channels with alphanumeric tags. Despite its small size it is not a handheld: it needs an external 12 V supply (11-16 V DC) and was designed for mobile use.
