Antenna Information

The XCOM 760 Transceiver is a state-of-the-art product and requires a quality,
matched antenna to provide the best possible performance, clarity and range.
Some of the most important considerations are the location of the antenna, proper
installation and high quality cable and connectors.

In a single place aircraft, in helicopters or in aircraft where only
one PTT switch is required, the copilot PTT can be used to toggle
active and standby frequencies, in the default screen, or to cycle
through memory channels, when in the MEM screen. When the
PTT2 setting is on, the copilot PTT is active and when this setting is
off, the copilot PTT acts as a toggle switch.
Rotate the F/CH control to toggle the setting On or OFF.
This setting determines the mode of operation of the line input
audio. The default is CD.
The line input can be used as a second communication input or as
a music or compact disc input. When CD mode is selected, the
input volume will fade as the pilot or copilot talks and the input will
be muted as a signal is received on the radio. When Radio mode is
selected, this fade and mute feature is disabled.
Rotate the F/CH control to toggle the setting to CD or RAD.
This setting enables or disables the ability to adjust the active
frequency directly in the default screen. The default is off.
To enable quick scanning and selection of active frequencies, the
active frequency can be adjusted directly and the new frequency
monitored immediately. This is particularly useful when searching
for frequencies with activity. When this mode is enabled, in the
default screen, pressing the F/CH knob cycles adjustment of the
frequencies between the following:
• Standby MHz.
• Standby kHz. (Kkz. digit flashing)
• Active frequency (active frequency separator bar flashing)
• Active MHz. (active MHz. digit flashing)
• Active kHz. (active kHz. digit flashing)
After 3 seconds of inactivity, the unit will revert to modification of
the standby frequency.
Rotate the F/CH control to toggle the setting on or off.
