I recently inherited this radio. Since I know very little, to nothing, about this radio I have taken the general description and specs for this base from the RangerUSA web site. I did have the radio checked out by a local CB shop and it was found to be in tip top shape. Everything is working perfectly. The radio has been fine tuned and is in excellent condition. The Texas Ranger TR-696FSSB incorporates the "new circuit design" manufacturing by Ranger Communications, Inc. Built with ruggedness, durability and reliability in mind, this model will answer your needs for a high performance radio with both AM and SSB operation. The TR-696FSSB also offers the ability to select from 7 NOAA Weather Channels insuring that you will have the coverage for your local area. Also included is a NOAA Emergency Alert Tone to warn of impending weather problems. The TR-696FSSB is attractively designed incorporating the latest in desired appearance styling. Utilizing the military style design with the rack mount front panel, you can mount it in a console for a professional looking desk arrangement, rack mount it military style, or even just setting on the desk offers a distinctive appearance. As a full featured radio, the TR-696FSSB offers the user the most advanced features available in a CB base station radio. The Advanced Noise Filter circuit de-emphasizes the audio high frequency response in order to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of weak signals. This provides you with the ability to receive those marginal signals with much more clarity and understandability. Combined with the Noise Blanker and the Automatic Noise Limiter, this has to be the quietest base station ever manufactured. The talkback control allows you to monitor your own voice, adjust the volume, and even try out those different microphones to find the one that you like the best. Two separate large meters provides easy reading of the signal strength on the received signal, and monitor the transmitter output power & SWR of the antenna. It even includes a recording output jack on the back to connect a tape recorder. Now you can tape record your voice modulation, or contact with that favorite station. The TR-696FSSB is loaded with outstanding features for a base station, and will satisfy the most hardcore user. — Switch for Instant Access to Channel 9 — Built-in 6 Digit Frequency Counter — Large Channel Selector Knob — 2 Color Xmit/Rcv Indicator — Advanced Noise Filter Circuit Switch — Automatic Noise Limiter Switch — Large Illuminated SWR Meter — Large Illuminated S/RF Meter — Separate Adjustable Volume/Squelch Control — Adjustable Talk Back Control — Front Panel Headphone Jack — Built in Voltage Overload Protection Adjustable (threshold less than 0.5 µV ) 100 mV for 10 dB Change in Audio Output Less then 1 µV for 12 db SINAD Single Conversion Superhet, 455 KHz IF Any questions???
