PREFACE

GME Pty Ltd reserves all rights to this document and the information contained

herein. Reproduction, use or disclosure to third parties without express permission

is strictly prohibited.

SAFETY INFORMATION

The XRS-660 is a radio transmitting device.

• When transmitting, keep the antenna more than 25 mm from any part of the

head or body.

• Do not transmit near electrical blasting equipment or in explosive

atmospheres.

• Do not allow children to operate a radio transmitter unsupervised.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING UHF CB RADIO

The use of the Citizen Band radio service is licensed in Australia by the ACMA

Radiocommunications (Citizens Band Radio Stations) Class Licence and in New

Zealand by the Ministry of Economic Development New Zealand (MED). A General

User Radio Licence for Citizens Band radio and operation is subject to conditions

contained in those licences. The class licence for users and equipment operating

in the CB/PRS 477 MHz band has been amended. This radio meets the new 80

channel standard.

In simple terms the same amount of spectrum is available; however, radio

transceivers can now operate in a narrower bandwidth and hence use less

spectrum per channel. These radios are generally referred to as narrowband

or 12.5 kHz radios. By using 12.5 kHz channel spacing instead of 25 kHz, the

40 channels originally allocated can now be expanded to 80 channels thereby

doubling the channel capacity and relieving congestion in the UHF CB/PRS band.

Older 40 channel wideband radios will continue to operate on the original 40

channels, however they will not be able to converse on the newer channels

41 – 80.

XRS-660 7

The newer narrowband radios will be able to converse with all older 40 channel

wideband radios on all channels 1 – 40 as well as the newer channels allocated

from 41 – 80.

The mixing of narrowband and wideband radios in the same spectrum may

possibly cause operating issues of interference and varying levels of received

volume. For example, when a new narrowband radio receives a transmission from

an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud and distorted. Alternatively,

when an older wideband radio receives a signal from a new narrowband radio, the

speech may sound quiet. In each case, simply adjust your radio volume for best

performance.

Depending on how close your receiving radio is to another transmitting radio,

there might be interference from the transmitting radio if it is using a channel

adjacent to the channel you are listening to. Simply switch up or down a few

channels from the currently selected channel.

The above situations are not a fault of the radio but a symptom of operating

wideband and narrowband radios in the same bandwidth. These minor issues

should decrease over time as the population of wideband radios ages and

decreases.

Further information and updates are available from the Australian

Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) at www.acma.gov.au and the

Ministry of Economic Development (MED), Radio Spectrum Management at

www.rsm.govt.nz.

EMERGENCY CHANNELS

The ACMA has allocated channels 5/35 for emergency use only.

Channel 5 is the primary Simplex Emergency Channel. Where a channel 5 repeater

is available, you should select Duplex on channel 5.

Channel 35 is the input channel for the channel 5 repeater. Therefore channel 35

should also not be used for anything other than emergency transmissions.

XRS-660

TELEMETRY CHANNELS

ACMA regulations have allocated channels 22 and 23 for telemetry-only

applications and have prohibited the transmission of speech on these channels.

Consequently the radio has a transmit inhibit applied to channels 22 and 23.

In the event that additional telemetry/telecommand channels are approved by

the ACMA, these channels shall be added to those currently listed where voice

transmission is inhibited. Currently, transmissions on channels 61, 62 and 63 are

also inhibited and these channels are reserved for future allocation.

IMPORTANT ADVICE

• Read all instructions carefully and completely before operating your radio and

retain this manual for future reference.

• Never connect the radio to a power source other than the supplied battery.

This may damage your radio.

• Do not place your radio in front of a vehicle airbag.

• Do not use your radio with a damaged antenna.

• Do not attempt to modify your radio in any way.

• Always charge your radio at normal room temperature.

• Always switch o your radio where notices restrict the use of two-way radio

or mobile telephones.

• Use only GME approved rechargeable battery packs with the supplied

charger.

• Avoid storing or charging your radio in direct sunlight.

• Avoid storing or using your radio where temperatures are below -20°C or

above +60°C.

INTRODUCTION

Building on the market-leading innovation of GME’s popular range of XRS™

Connect UHF CB Radios, the Australian Made XRS-660 oers a number of

exciting new features, clearly demonstrating GME’s ongoing commitment to the

development of new technology for UHF CB Radio users.

The XRS-660 is the rst Handheld UHF CB radio to feature a colour TFT LCD

screen, providing the ultimate Handheld radio display for all environmental

conditions – even in full sunlight.

Bluetooth® audio connectivity allows the XRS-660 to wirelessly connect to an

extensive range of third-party audio accessories, providing users with new and

improved ways to stay connected.

Built-in GPS functionality ensures the XRS-660 can provide true location

awareness without relying on a smartphone to provide GPS location data. This

capability is particularly useful in commercial applications where location tracking

of users in remote areas may be required for workplace safety.

Featuring rugged IP67 Ingress Protection and a MIL-STD810G rating, the XRS-660

is our toughest and most advanced handheld radio yet.

ACCESSORIES SUPPLIED

• 5 Watt UHF CB Handheld Radio (XRS-660)

• 2550 mAh Li-ion Battery Pack (BP030)

• Desktop Charger (BCD026)

• AC Adaptor (PS005)

• Removable Flexible Antenna (AE4028)

• Belt Clip (MB059)

XRS-660

FEATURES

• Transmit (TX)

• 5W/1W/100mW RF Power: Selectable transmitter power allows you to

conserve the battery when transmitting in close range by using the Low

(1W) or Ultra-Low (100mW) Power setting.

• Individually Programmable Duplex Function: User selectable for only

those individual channels in your area that have repeaters, leaving the

others free for use as extra simplex channels.

• Voice activated PTT (VOX): The VOX feature allows you to have hands-

free conversations by detecting your voice and causing the radio to

transmit without the need to press PTT.

• Receive (RX)

• CB Channels: 80 channels 477 MHz UHF CB

• User Programmable Receive Channels: 8 zones of 50 channels per zone

for a total of 400 additional receive-only channels.

• Digital Signal-Strength Meter: Provides a numeric signal strength

indication in numbers from 0 to 9+.

• Advanced Power Saving Feature: Allows the XRS Connect Radio to

‘sleep’ during periods of inactivity to conserve battery power.

• Scanning and Memory Functions

• Microprocessor Controlled Frequency Synthesiser: Allows user

programmable control of scanning, channel memories and selected feature

options.
