GME TX6500S handheld CB radio

GME has introduced the TX6500S 5W handheld UHF CB radio, designed and manufactured in Australia, featuring ScanSuite and DSP. IP67 rated, it has a die-cast aluminium chassis and can operate in temperatures from -20 to +60°C.

The TX6500S features ScanSuite, a technology that GME says scans twice as fast as other UHF CB, resulting in uninterrupted conversations with a group of like radios, and skips nuisance signals while continually scanning memory channels.

The TX6500S radios are a robust communications solution when managing team communications in a business environment but are equally suitable for camping, touring and 4-wheel driving. A comprehensive range of aftermarket accessories provides multiple charging options, hands-free communication choices and radio protection.

Digital signal processing measures, filters and compresses standard analog radio signals and converts them to a digital format, eliminating much of the conventional processing and time-consuming manual alignment.

Advanced signal management (ASM) identifies interference caused by strong local signals on adjacent channels and prevents these from opening the squelch control. ASM also minimises distortion of reception by finetuning the receiver frequency to match that of the incoming signal.

Dynamic volume control automatically compensates for variations in received audio level and, when activated, provides a constant audio output level, enhancing quality of reception and the simplicity of use.

Other features include: five extra programmable receive channels with alpha labelling; SelCall; CTCSS; DCS; and voice inversion scrambler.
