1.5 Overview

The X-2 is a 10 channel, high frequency single sideband (HF SSB)
transceiver suitable for use in fixed station or mobile applications.
The X-2 can be factory set or dealer programmed using the XP programming
system to select:

channelling/customising components. Because operation on lower sideband

Service RFDS - only in Australia) is software programmable, there is no
need for factory fitted hardware options.
Different audio tones indicate operating conditions or system faults such as:

•
•

on the rear panel allow the use of:
•
•
This eliminates the need for antenna selectors or coaxial switches.

transceiver by using the microphone socket. XP software is not required for
cloning.
