The TK-5720 is advertised as a public safety radio, but the brochure says the TK-5720 can only do 12.5 kHz channel steps (not 7.5 kHz). I thought surely this was an error, but a call to Kenwood's land mobile support confirmed. Is there something I'm missing? The FCC has been assigning interstitial frequencies in the public safety band since 2005, and there have been several well-documented cases where radios incompatible with 7.5 kHz spacing became a safety hazard on a fire incident. Why would Kenwood be selling a public safety radio that can't even tune to any of the interstitial frequencies?
