At the same time, Cooper announced the availability of the HT 220 units with capabilities for private line, selective call, remote speaker microphone and multiple frequency (up to 6 frequencies) as well as universal and surveillance models. Extended duty cycle models are also available.
Two Motorola designed monolithic integrated circuits, three in the private line model, make possible the unique size reduction, 50% from the previous standard -the HT 200 "Handie-Talkie" radio. "With the introduction of these new models of the HT 220, Motorola is extending this new standard of personal portability to cover the full spectrum of portable two-way communications," Cooper said in making the announcement.
Recently described by New York Mayor John V. Lindsay as "an extraordinarily important breakthrough in miniaturized communications equipment," the HT 220 radio is small and light enough to fit in the hand, be clipped to the belt or carried in a jacket pocket. The standard 1.8 watt version measures 6.95 inches long. 2.75 inches wide and 1.16 inches thick and weighs 21 ounces.
