DJ-X2T
Is this the world's smallest multi-mode scanning receiver ?

Alinco has created a multi-mode receiver that is small, sensitive, easy to use and can be taken nearly anywhere. Listen to the action of police, fire, public safety, aircraft and more. AM and FM broadcast, Amateur, marine, weather and other transmissions are yours, from a receiver that fits inside a pocket!

A technical breakthrough, the DJ-X2 comes with two sources of battery power; a long-lasting internal Lithium-ion battery and a snap-on dry cell power pack. Together, they can provide approximately 24 hours continuous listening, using the "battery save" mode.
Don't let the small size of the DJ-X2 deceive you. It features loud, clear audio from its speaker or headphone and three different antenna modes capture the signals you want to hear. Start with the "Easy" operation mode, then move up to "Expert" level. You can store up to 700 frequencies in memory channels.

The DJ-X2 contains several advanced features, including a unique "sniffer" circuit (patent pending) that searches for hidden transmitters or "bugs" and an adjustable descrambler that allows you to hear certain types of transmissions.*
An attenuator reduces strong signals. Up to 5 banks can be linked during scan functions. The DJ-X2 also has many custom settings that give the operator maximum flexibility in creating a user profile that suits specific needs.
  • "Credit Card" size
  • 522 KHz ~ 1 GHz tuning range.**
  • 700 memory channels (70 channels X 10 banks)
  • AM, FM, WFM modes
  • Internal Lithium-ion battery PLUS snap-on dry-cell power pack
  • Effective RF "sniffer" feature detects hidden transmitters (patent pending)
  • Three different antenna modes including internal ferrite bar
  • Easy and Expert user operating profiles
  • Attenuator
  • Clone function
  • Preset, memory and VFO operating modes
  • Illuminated display.
*Check local regulations prior to use.
This feature is not available for the DJ-X2T.
The CPU allows this function to appear to be available, but it is in fact disabled on the U.S. version.
**Cellular frequencies blocked in USA model.


Standard Features
  • Three Antenna Modes
    Use the standard SMA antenna for normal operations. An internal ferrite antenna is provided for low frequency AM reception. The headphone cable can be used as an antenna in place of the SMA antenna.
  • Flexible Power Options
    You can operate the DJ-X2 using just its internal Lithium-ion battery. Or use the provided EDH-27 dry cell pack as an additional power source. Use both power sources for extended operation.
  • Preset Operating Mode
    AM, FM and Television frequency bands are already programmed into the DJ-X2 for easy operation.
  • Four Scan Modes
    Scan preset frequencies, VFO, programmed scan limits or memory bank channels.
  • Find Hidden Transmitters
    "Sniff" for hidden transmitters or "bugs" with a circuit so new and unique, we've applied for a patent.
  • Selectable Tuning Steps
    Choose from 11 different tuning steps or use the "Auto" selection mode. powerful features in an easily used package!
