Connect the radio’s negative (black) lead to the 

vehicles chassis, or if preferred, directly to the 

battery’s negative terminal.

The radio’s positive (red) lead should connect 

to an accessory point in the vehicle’s fuse box. 

This point should 13.8 Volts 

only when 

the ignition switch is ON or in the ACCESSORY 

position.

A  repeater  consists  of  a  transmitter/receiver 

system  installed  in  a  prominent  location. The 

repeater  is  designed  to  receive  signals  on  a 

designated  channel  and  re-transmit  them  on 

another channel.

Repeaters  are  usually  located  on  hills, 

mountains  or  tall  buildings.  The  increased 

elevation  greatly  improves  the  range  of  the 

repeater beyond that of normal base or mobile 

installations. This means that repeaters are able 

to  receive  and  re-transmit  signals  between  

UHF CB stations that would otherwise be out of 

range of each other.

Normally,  UHF  transceivers  transmit  and   

receive on the same channel. This is known as 

SIMPLEX.  However,  to  communicate  through 

repeaters,  your  transceiver  must  be  able  to 

transmit  and  receive  on  different  channels 

(known as DUPLEX). Your TX4200 is fitted with 

a Duplex button to allow you to operate through 

repeaters. 

The Duplex function only operates on channels 

1 to 8. When Duplex is selected your TX4200 

receives on the selected channel (e.g.  channel 

1)  but  automatically  transmits  30  channels 

higher (i.e. channel 31). The UHF CB repeater 

then  receives  your  signal  on  channel  31  and 

re-transmit it on channel 1 for others to hear.
