The Morrow MB-565 twins with the Morrow MB-6 receiver and is the follow up to the Morrow MB-560. The MB-6 / MB-565 combination forms a very compact communication set, rather special for its time. Morrows are rare these days.

Requires an external power supply. Recommended power supplies include the Morrow RVP-260B and TV-600A or the combined RTV-630.
