SM06 Rev. 4.10 Tac/Com Control Head Manual
1.3.3
Radio Capability Increase With Tac/Com
Wherever possible, NAT has increased the capability of other transceivers via the
Tac/Com control head, and those features are summarized below, compared to the
original controls:

*NAT NT-series Radios have the capability shown. Tac/Com controls can provide 32
PL tones for Flexcomm. Tac/Com II can also provide an internal tone upgrade for the
RT-9600/7200 to provide all 32 standard EIA CTCSS tones (‘U’ interface).
PL = Private Line (also known as CTCSS)
DPL = Digital Private Line
W.E.D. = Wulfsberg Electronics Division
Note: Only NAT's own NT-series transceivers support all the features provided by
Tac/Com controls. Tac/Com controls cannot give a radio functions of which it is
inherently incapable. For example, older crystal-controlled Flitefone 40's do not
become agile radios when connected to a Tac/Com head, and Flexcomm radios
do not acquire high speed scanning or DPL capability.
