The new Ranger RCI-6900F (SSB/AM /FM) series of amateur mobile
transceivers offer exceptional value for Novice and Technician Class amateurs upgrading to Tech Plus and
higher.
These new entry-level units are designed for easy, reliable and safe
mobile operation. Available in high and low power versions, the RCI-6900F transceivers provide excellent receiver
sensitivity and multi-mode operation at a fraction of the cost of full band transceivers.
The easy-to-use frequency selection system covers the 10- meter
amateur band in 6-band segments. Actual operating frequency is accurately displayed in the 6-digit LED display
that’s easy to read even in bright sunlight.
A channel indicator speeds return to a popular or previously used
frequency without interfering with the operator's attention to the road.
Selectable Automatic Noise Limiter (ANL) and Noise Blanker assures
noise reduction during mobile operation.
Front panel RF power output control and RF Gain controls enable the
operator to set transmitter power and receiver sensitivity to match operating conditions.
Additional front panel controls assure optimum performance under
widely varying conditions:
A +10 kHz switch complements the frequency selection
system by shifting the Tx and Rx frequencies up by a known amount for increased driving safety. Separate
coarse and fine tuning controls for tuning above and below the selected frequency for ease of operations. A
three-function, easy-to-read panel meter indicates received signal strength, transmitter power output, and antenna
SWR.
