Outback HF Radiophone 2-1
2. Overview
Your Outback HF Radiophone employs the latest concepts
in design and reliability for long range communications. It
has been designed for 12V DC operation in mobile
installations.
The Outback HF Radiophone consists of a transceiver and a
separate control head, automatic tuning whip antenna,
vehicle mounting cradle, extension loudspeaker and all
interface control and coaxial cables (6 metres).
It has been programmed with all the Royal Flying Doctor
Service (RFDS) and Telstra (formerly OTC) frequencies
suitable for operation into these services and any private
frequencies that may have been requested at the time of
purchase. In addition, the frequency program includes the
CB (27 MHz) channels for USB–LSB operation. A
comprehensive frequency list is supplied as a separate
handbook.
You operate the transceiver through the control head, which
contains sealed membrane switches (or buttons) and a liquid
crystal display (LCD). The LCD shows the selected channel
number along with the transmit and receive frequencies. In
addition, the display shows messages about the operation of
the transceiver.
Continual research and development has produced different
versions of the transceiver. The different version means a
later issue of EPROM which provides different operating
features. To check the version of your transceiver, refer to
section 4, Reviewing the EPROM version and options. This
issue of the handbook incorporates operating information for
EPROM version 4.3.
