Preventive Maintenance

The following system checks should be made every six to twelve months:

• Check the Standing Wave Ratio (SWR).
• Inspect the tightness of all electrical connections.
- Inspect the antenna coaxial cable for wear or breaks on the shielding.
- Inspect the tightness of all screws and other mounting hardware.

Troubleshooting

Should the unit malfunction or perform poorly, follow these procedures:

If the transceiver is completely inoperative: Check the power cord and fuse.

If there is trouble with receiving: Check the VOLUME control setting. Be sure the SQUELCH is adjusted properly. Possibly the radio is over-squelched.

If there is trouble with transmitting: Check that the transmission line (coaxial cable) is securely connected to the ANTENNA connector. Check that the antenna is fully extended for proper operation. Check that all transmission line (coaxial cable) connections are secure and free of corrosion.

NOTE

Blackening may occur on the Liquid Crystal Display if the UHF CB Radio or optional Remote SPK/MIC has been subjected to extreme high temperature (above 60°C). This is not a fault. Normal LCD operation resumes when the temperature stabilizes back to standard operating condition (0-55°C).

Using Repeater Channels

UHF CB repeaters are used to retransmit or relay your signal. Repeaters will extend the range of your radio and overcome the shielding effect caused by solid obstructions. In normal Simplex operation, your radio transmits on one particular frequency and receives on that same frequency.

If there is a barrier that partially blocks your transmitted signal, the probability of another radio receiving the signal is very slim. Hills, tall buildings, metallic structures,... etc tend to act as a screen between radios.

Normal Simplex Operation Transmitting on CH 31 No Signal being Received

Standard Operation without the aid of a Repeater Station.

Repeater Station CH 31 CH 01

Operation with the aid of a Repeater Station (Duplex).

The signal coming from your radio is received by the Repeater Station and the re-transmitted at the same time on another channel. This operation is called “Duplexing”.

For example,

CH01 on Duplex Mode will Receive on CH01 but Transmit on CH31

CH02 on Duplex Mode will Receive on CH02 but Transmit on CH32 etc...

If you transmit on CH01 Duplex mode, you are actually transmitting on CH31 the repeater station down-coverts your signal and retransmits on CH01.

Operating the UHF CB Transceiver in Duplex Mode

For this example we are adopting CH01 as the channel being used in your area for repeater use.

1. Press [MENU/ENTER]. The duplex setting flashes.

2. Turn the Rotary Channel Selector at the base or press ▲ on the Remote SPK/MIC to change the setting between ON (“r” for repeater channels 01 - 08 or “n” for repeater channels 41 - 48) or OFF.

3. Press [MENU/ENTER] to store the setting.

4. Press and hold [MENU/ENTER] to exit from the menu mode. Only channels 01 - 08 and 41 - 48 are available for Duplex.

CTCSS will not operate on these channels.

Please follow these guidelines for channel use in Australia:

• Channels 05 and 35 are Emergency Channels.
  • Channel 11 is a Calling Channel.
• Channels 22 and 23 are for telemetry and telecommand applications, channels 61, 62 and 63 are for future use and TX is inhibited on these channels.

General communication is accepted on all other channels with these guidelines:

• Channel 40 - road channel (Australia).
• Channels 01-08 (and 31-38), and Channels 41-48 (and 71-78) are repeater channels.

Important information - 80 Channel UHF-CB channel expansion

To provide all users additional channel capacity within the UHF-CB Band. The ACMA will change the majority of the current wideband 40 channel use to narrowband channel use. This allows for additional channels to be added, up to 80 Channels.

This simply means that the new narrowband radio you have purchased will have more channels than older radios. Please refer to the guidelines above and the channel chart for further channel information.

A list of currently authorised channels can also be obtained from the ACMA website in Australia and the MBIE website in New Zealand.

Interference / Poor Audio

When a new narrowband radio receives a signal from an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud - however the radio's built-in AVS (Automatic Volume Stabilizer) circuitry will detect and manage incoming audio to comparable levels.

Narrowband radios operating on CH41 - CH80 may encounter interference from a nearby wideband radios transmitting on high power on an adjacent channel (frequency).

When an older wideband radio receives a signal from a new narrowband radio the speech may sound quiet - the wideband radio user simply adjusts their radio volume for best performance.

The above situations are not a fault of the radio but a symptom of mixed wideband and narrowband radios in current use. It is expected that as older wideband radios are phased out this issue will be eliminated.
