Birdy WP

POCSAG pager with colour backlighting

Description

Birdy WPs r2 is the evolution of Birdy WP, incorporating a larger number of addresses (up to 128) and a new LCD display with multi-colour backlighting, enabling an address to be assigned a colour.

BIRDY WPs r2 128 is designed for use in harsh conditions. It is waterproof, so it can withstand splashes, dust and the shocks that are inevitable when working in the field, as well as accidental immersion to a depth of 1 metre.
