TX 3420 Information

Bottom of Page

The TX3420 is practical and versitile. Through rugged construction, enhanced features and performance, the TX3420 rewrites the the standard for 477 MHz radios. Easy installation in any vehicle with the remote mounting panel and alternatively, the remote head can be attached directly to the main unit if required to create a compact one-piece transceiver.

The microphone includes Channel up/down keys and a Priority Channel button making these features a simple one-handed operation.

In addition, the TX3420 can be installed into a standard in-dash DIN slot using the optional MBD001 DIN adapter kit.

Measuring just 128 mm wide x 117 mm long x 29 mm high (128 mm wide x 31 mm long x 29 mm for the remote head), the TX3420 is small in size but huge in performance and built to last. Add to that the 3 year GME warranty and you have a UHF transceiver that's unsurpassed in its category.

 FEATURES

  • Digital Signal Strength Meter.

  • 59 Extra User Programmable Receive Channels (403-520 MHz).

  • Frequency Band Scanning.

  • Industry First 3 Year Warranty.

  • Designed and manufactured in Australia.

 ADVANCED FEATURES
  • Programmable Scan Function
    Scans up to 40 user programmable channels with both Group and Open scan functions available.

  • Remote or Local Installation Options
    The TX3420 can be mounted either remotely using the separate control head, or locally with the control head attached to the main unit.

  • Quiet Mode
    Selectable on individual channels, the Quiet mode prevents incoming signals from being heard on selected channels unless preceded by your selcall code.

  • Overvoltage Protection
    Special overvoltage detection circuitry protects the radio and warns of excessive voltage conditions by flashing the display.

  • 59 Extra User Programmable Listening Channels
    The wide band receiver allows the user to program up to 59 listening channels anywhere within the range of 403-520 MHz using the front panel keys. A manual-scan feature makes it easy to locate and store active channels.
  • Inbuilt Selcall
    Selective Calling with 4 or 5 digit ANI and fully user adjustable 5 tone transmitted Selcall Ident. Also allows naming of Ident for easier caller identification.

  • User Selectable Priority Channel
    Lets you programme your normal working or local repeater channel for instant recall at the press of a button.

  • Individually Programmable Duplex Function
    User selectable for only those individual channels in your area that have repeaters, leaving the others free for use as extra simplex channels.

  • CTCSS
    A built-in Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System provides quiet channel operation.
