  • Notes
  • The Philips FM620 is an Australian‑made 40‑channel UHF CB/FM mobile transceiver, produced in the early 1980s as part of Philips’ transition from 27 MHz AM sets to the new 477 MHz UHF CB standard. It sits in the same family as the FM650 and represents a major technological step forward from the earlier FM320 series.
