2995DXHP

 

 

      Designed to enhance any serious operators shack, this rack-mounted unit offers exceptional sound quality and large, easy-to-use controls. The RCI-2995DX has features that include: AM-CW-FM-SSB modes of operation, variable power, noise blanker and built-in heavy duty AC power supply and provides 150 watts PEP output, and a rear panel frequency meter output for measuring transmit operating frequency.

     Dual panel meters display received signal strength transmitter power output and antenna SWR. Clarifier audio tone controls for accurate receiver tuning improved reception under difficult conditions. Pushbutton selection of programming scanning functions, and programmable repeater split for FM operation enhances the renewed 10 meter repeater activity.

     The RCI-2995DX offers microprocessor-based advanced features typically found in high-end units costing several times as much, including programmable repeater offset and capabilities for a CTCSS tone option — great for increasing repeater activity on 10 meters — and receiver scanning for quick search of active frequencies. The unit offers three methods of frequency selection, non-volatile memory to store and scan up to ten favorite frequencies, scanning of selected frequency segment or stored frequencies and front panel frequency selector lockout .

     In addition, the RCI-2995DX offers an impressive array of design and performance improvements:
  • An improved receiver: designed for increased sensitivity and image rejections.
  • A double FET balanced mixer: for improved receiver inter-modulation rejection.
  • Surface mount components: for increased resistance to shock and vibration.

Mic wiring diagram

 

Ranger radios sometimes have a small scratch or ding that the factory covers with black touch up.  We cannot effect this and do not guarantee your radio to be cosmetically perfect.  Bells CB will make no marks or scratches on your radio ourselves.  Ranger might though and I cannot control it.   


  

We ask that if you may need Warranty service on this radio to please send directly to Ranger.  You can find all the information you need Here<---

Select Above  Tune-up and frequency conversion. (Tune-up, Alignment
and expand the frequency range)
$59
 Add a "Slider" option to your frequency conversion Modified the Clarifier for ability to control frequency on TX as well as RX, requires frequency realignment This mod is available to some who want it, but I don't necessarily recommend it) ( +/- 1 kHz range) $25

4P switch
 Install a 4P switch in the back to simultaneously do these 4 things:
  
1) Turn off the 200w amp.
   2) Turn off the Fan kit.
   3) Change internal settings when switch is off to give a better power range - in low
   4) Change the internal SSB settings so that you can get better SSB performance in low.
$49
Switch Location
 PTT Port
 Install an EXTERNAL PTT keying port. We use your FREQ Counter output RCA jack.  Every time you key it provides a connection between the +/- of the RCA connector.
  
1) Output RCA completely isolated  from the radio. The RCA connects to a relay that isolates it from the radios circuits.
   2) Optional BYPASS switch in case your external device does not have one. (turns port off (stays open))
   3) Works all the time in high or low power modes..
   4) Heavy duty relay can handle any keying circuit voltage, even the SB-220's - 120VDC circuit.
