The case has 2 analog potentiometers for volume and squelch. One large rotary dial for frequency and data entry. One power button and 5 functions buttons are also included. The MH-48 hand microphone has a DTMF keypad, as well as additional function buttons. The face of the radio does not detach for remote mounting.

gollark: Have you not seen the 918273189378193718937198237891723871892371 people saying something like "humanity bad"?
gollark: They should probably also have sensible fallbacks in case the server implodes, or a sensor fails.
gollark: If all your smart™ things use an encrypted communication channel to a reasonably secured server, and have some kind of privilege system so that a random thermometer can't override door lock controls or something, it's probably fine for practical purposes.
gollark: Well, it does seem that all sufficiently complex computer systems end up with horrible vulnerabilities somewhere because people cannot into security, but apart from that.
gollark: You can use advanced technology called "basically any cryptography and sensible system design".
