In the regular dual frequency mode you can listen to a VHF/UHF frequency and an HF frequency, even if different modes. The special tri-frequency mode allows HF reception combined with the dual offset mode!

We had an opportunity to test-drive the new AR5001D here at Universal on June 15, 2010 and we were most impressed! The AR2300 is a Black Box version of this receiver.
