Information
Your HTX-242 Two-Meter Mobile Transceiver is an exciting
addition to Radio Shack’s growing line of high-quality
amateur radio
equipment. It offers some of the most advanced, and most
requested, features available in a mobile Transceiver. Be
sure to read this entire manual to understand how to use all
the radio’s features.
FEATURES
2
Auto Memory Store (AMS)—automatically searches for active
frequencies and stores them in memory, including the appropriate
Repeater offset.
High (45 Watt) and Low (10 Watt) Power Settings—let you select
the best power setting for effective communications.
True FM Modulation—provides a clear, natural-sounding signal.
41 Memory Channels—hold one calling frequency and 40
standard frequencies.
Priority Memory Channel 1—lets you set the HTX-242 to
periodically check the frequency stored in Memory Channel 1
and alert
you if there is activity on it.
Individually Programmable Repeater Offsets —let you program
different Repeater offset frequencies for each memory, and a
default Repeater offset for manually-tuned frequencies.
Subaudible Tone Transmit and Receive (CTCSS) —transmits the
subaudible tones required to use some repeaters, and also
lets you
set a subaudible tone that your Transceiver must receive to open
squelch.
DTMF Page with Group Calling—lets you set a sequence of up to
seven DTMF tones that your Transceiver must receive to sound an
alert tone and open squelch.
DTMF Transmit and Memory —lets you manually send DTMF
tones or send DTMF sequences of up to 15 digits each from one of
10 DTMF memories to quickly access DTMF-access repeaters,
autopatches, or other stations equipped with a DTMF page
feature.
