to transmit and receive on different channels (known as
DUPLEX) . Your TX4400 has a Duplex key to allow you to
operate through repeaters .-

The Duplex function only operates on channels 1 - 8, as
these are the channels that have been designated for
repeater use . When Duplex mode is selected, your TX4400
receives on the selected channel (e .g . channel 1) but
automatically transmits 30 channels higher (i .e . channel
31) . The UHF repeater receives your signal on Channel 31
and retransmits it on channel 1 for others to hear .

INSTALLATION

The TX4400 is supplied with a double action mounting
bracket and vibration proof washers . The mounting bracket
can be secured in any convenient location (i .e . under the
dash, above the dash, on the centre console etc) .

The TX4400 mounting bracket is designed with a unique
dual position gimbal mounting slot . This design not only
allows the TX4400 to be tilted over a much greater range,
but also provides a slim, low profile mounting position for
installations where space is very limited .

When installing the radio, avoid mounting it close to
heaters or air conditioners . Screw the mounting cradle to a
firm surface . The vibration proof washers have an adhesive
backing on one side . The vibration proof washers have an
adhesive backing on one side .

This allows them to remain in the correct position when
removing or refitting the radio . Slide the TX4400 into the
bracket, adjust it for the correct viewing angle and tighten
the gimbal knobs securely . Finally, connect the power and
antenna leads to the sockets provided on the rear of the
radio .

Note: The sides of your TX4400 have two pairs of gimbal
mounting holes - one pair in the centre of the case and
the other pair towards the rear . A black label covers the
rearward gimbal holes . For most installations, the mounting
bracket should be installed using the central gimbal holes .
