The TX3500SVP is a rugged and robust communications value pack. Pairing the TX3500S and the AE4018K2 elevated-feed 6.1dBi antenna, this easily installed setup delivers reliable communication whenever you need it.
Synonymous with quality and reliability, the TX3500S is one of the most advanced 5 Watt UHF CB radios of its kind.
Featuring GME’s market-leading digital scanning technology, ScanSuite™, and an impressive feature list that includes Digital Signal Processing (DSP), Advanced Signal Management, Dynamic Volume Control, and 19 additional receive-only channels.
The TX3500S also includes CTCSS and DCS to minimise unwanted background noise and interruptions from other users.
The radio’s compact size and unique slide-in mounting cradle makes installation simple while the rugged die-cast metal chassis, intuitive user interface and controls ensure the radio is easy to use and delivers optimal performance in the harshest working conditions.
