PROFESSIONAL TWO-WAY RADIO

03

PROGRAMMING NOTICE!

This transceiver has been factory 

programmed and can be used immediately 

once purchased. All 16 channels have been 

activated with channels in the license free 

bands as per the table. There are 2 bands, 

PMR 446MHz band with 8 frequencies (1-8) 

and the 464MHz band with 5 frequencies 

(1a-5a). Select the same channel on any 

ZA-758 radio to communicate.

Compatibility:

The ZA-758 is factory programmed to be 

directly compatible with all 16 channels on 

the ZA-705 and the first 8 channels on the 

ZA-708 if they are set to factory 

programming. You will need to reprogram 

your ZA-758 radio when there is other 

programming to be set. 

If you require communications with other 

radios using the 446MHz band, such as 

the Zartek Pro8 or COM8, or those using the 

464MHz band, such the Zartek ZA200 or Pro5, you can change 

the channels to correspond with the ZA-758. Both the frequency 

(1-8 or 1a-5a) and CTCSS sub tones (1-38) must be the same on 

all radios. Should there be interference on a specific channel, 

select a different channel. Note that Channel 9, 10 & 11 are set 

on the open frequency without a sub tone. A sub tone is used to 

privatise conversations when using the same frequency.

An optional programming cable is available to program different 

PMR 446MHz and 464MHz channels and sub tones on the 

ZA-758. Software is available for free download from 

www.zartek.co.za . The programming cable is connected to the 

radio to the USB port on a PC. Other settings such as Scrambler,

Please refer to the sections in this manual for instructions on
