The X-2 transceiver is type approved in Australia as the 9105 transceiver. All
type approval documentation refers to it as the 9105. Throughout this
manual the transceiver is referred to as the X-2.

If there is a need to program the X-2, make reference to the XP
programming guide. This guide is available as a separate document, Codan
Part No:15-04035.
1.5 Overview
The X-2 is a 10 channel, high frequency single sideband (HF SSB)
transceiver suitable for use in fixed station or mobile applications.
The X-2 can be factory set or dealer programmed using the XP programming
system to select:
• operating frequencies
• mode of operation
• emergency calling
• one of two antenna output sockets.
This programming feature eliminates the need for crystals and discreet
channelling/customising components. Because operation on lower sideband
(LSB), upper sideband (USB) or Emergency Call (Royal Flying Doctor
Service RFDS - only in Australia) is software programmable, there is no
need for factory fitted hardware options.
Different audio tones indicate operating conditions or system faults such as:
• excessive VSWR
• tune complete or fail
• low or high supply voltage
• channel not programmed.
Where two channel networks are used, two separate antenna output sockets
on the rear panel allow the use of:
• individually tuned half-wave dipole base station antennas
• mobile whips.
This eliminates the need for antenna selectors or coaxial switches.
Users can clone the programmed information contained in the X-2 to another
transceiver by using the microphone socket. XP software is not required for
cloning.
