The FT-3185R is the same as the FT-3185RASP but without the ASP (Audio Digital Signal Processing Unit) installed. The ASP module is sold separately and can be installed at a later date updating the radio to the full ASP version

The FT-3185RASP delivers dependable, high-performing 85W of transmit power. The massive heatsink with no cooling fan ensures reliable solid 85W RF power (selectable 85W / 50W/ 25W / 5W).
