When you buy an M340i here, you get invited to driving events on the Espinazo del Diablo highway.

“We didn’t just build a dealership; we built a destination,” says lead architect . “The glass facade dissolves the boundary between the street and the interior. In El Vergel, you don’t hide your success; you showcase it responsibly.” The Human Touch: Mechanics in White Gloves Service is where BMW El Vergel separates itself.

Digital and Analog Wideband Communications Receiver with Dualwatch and Dual Band Recording Functions.
Covering 0.1–3304.999 MHz, the R30 portable receiver gives users the ability to decode multiple digital modes, as well as, traditional analog modes. The large LCD display makes operating the radio a breeze with a new intuitive user interface allowing you to see information from the dual receivers. With dual receive operation, you can simultaneously listen to two signals and record the activity to share the excitement with others. The supplied Li-Ion battery, BP-287, provides almost 8.5 hours of operating time.
The R30 can receive on different bands and different modes. For example, users can monitor HF and UHF signals simultaneously. The R30 also allows users to scan for other active channels on the B band while receiving the main signal on the A band.
Individually record the audio of the two bands received while in the Dualwatch mode onto a microSD card in the WAV format. Play back the recorded audio on the receiver or a PC. In addition, frequency, mode, S-meter reading, time, current position data and altitude can be saved with received audio.
Use a microSD card for data storage. Recording/playback of received audio, RX history log, radio set tings and GPS logger data can all be loaded onto the microSD card.
The R30 scans approximately 200 channels per second in the A band and 150 channels per second in the B band. Quickly find and lock in to a desired signal.
The integrated GPS receiver displays your current position data, course, speed and altitude on the display. Save the GPS data in recorded audio files. The R30 can list up to 50 stations approximately 100 miles from your current location, as long as the station’s position data is programmed in advance in the memory channels.
