BI1ULP BI1AVH That seems to be correct, based on the fragmented information I have. The commercially available V87s are UV dual-segment engines. I haven't been able to find any single-segment V87 models. It appears to be a custom-built engine!
BG6QFO Could it be that there's a problem with the batteries themselves, perhaps tampered with or faulty ones being sold on the market? After installing them in the pagers, we started receiving no signal shortly after.
BI1ULP BG6QFO This ICOM radio should be a custom-made one. I couldn't find any commercially available products with the specific "single V segment" feature! Therefore, it's not possible to say that it's readily available.
