For licensed amateurs, the RFinder P10 represents a unique fusion of two essential tools: a ruggedized Android tablet and a fully capable dual-band DMR/FM transceiver. Instead of juggling radios, hotspot devices, and a separate tablet or smartphone, the P10 consolidates everything into a single platform built for field and shack use alike.
RFinder P10 as a DMR/FM Transceiver
- Worldwide DMR Access
Out of the box, the P10 connects to global DMR networks. You can join TGs, make private QSOs, and integrate seamlessly with hotspots or repeaters. - Analog FM Operation
Full FM capability makes it simple to hit local repeaters or simplex frequencies, ensuring compatibility with traditional VHF/UHF traffic. - Dual-Band Coverage (VHF/UHF)
Operates across both 2m and 70cm bands, making it versatile for local and regional work. - Integrated World Repeater Directory
No code-plug headaches—RFinder’s repeater directory is built in and updated dynamically. Simply select your repeater, and you’re on the air. - Automatic Roaming
The software handles repeater roaming as you move, eliminating the need for manual retuning when traveling. - Digital + Analog Scanning
Scan across both DMR and FM channels simultaneously to stay on top of activity in your area. - Built-in GPS with APRS Support
Position reporting, navigation, and tactical awareness are all possible via integrated GPS and APRS functionality. - Custom Code Plug Support
Advanced users can still build and upload their own code plugs, tailoring access to specific TGs, reflectors, and networks. - Transmission Recording and Playback
Capture QSOs for later review—a useful tool for contesting, nets, or field training. - High-Power Output
With strong RF output, the P10 ensures dependable coverage even in RF-challenged environments.
RFinder P10 as an Android Platform
While its radio features are the main draw, the P10 is also a full Android tablet, expanding its role far beyond a handheld transceiver:
- Run ham-related apps like EchoLink, QRZ, APRSdroid, SDR tools, or logging software.
- Insert a SIM card for standard voice calls, SMS, and 4G LTE connectivity.
- Use mapping and navigation apps (Google Maps, Waze) for mobile/field operations.
- Leverage Wi-Fi and hotspot functionality to keep laptops or other devices online.
- Pair Bluetooth headsets or keyboards for flexible operation in the field.
In essence, you can log QSOs, monitor APRS, check band conditions, and run digital modes—all from the same device you’re transmitting on.
Built for the Field
The RFinder P10’s rugged construction makes it ideal for deployments, portable operations, and emergency communications. It’s resistant to dust, moisture, and rough handling—something every ham who’s done field day in the rain can appreciate.
By combining a true dual-band transceiver with the flexibility of an Android tablet, the RFinder P10 eliminates the friction of juggling multiple devices and streamlines your station into a single, highly capable unit.
