Section I Introduction FREQUENCY RANGE The COBRA 2010 GTL WX transceiver represents one of the most advanced AM base station radios used as a Class D station in the Citizens Radio Service. This unit features advanced Phase Lock Loop (PLL) circuitry providing complete coverage of all 40 channels as shown below.
Section II Specifications GENERAL Channels 40. Frequency Range 26.965 to 27.405 MHz. Frequency Control Phase Lock Loop (PLL) synthesizer. Frequency Tolerance ± 130 Hz Typical. Operating Temperature Range -30 ° C to + 50 ° C. Microphone Plug-in type; 600 Ω dynamic.
Section II Specifications (Cont.) RECEIVER Sensitivity SSB: 0.25 µ V for 10dB (S+N)/N at greater than 1/2-watt of audio output. AM: 0.5 µ V for 10 dB (S+N)/ at greater than 1/2-watt of audio output. Selectivity AM: 6dB @ 3 KHz, 50 dB @ 9 KHz. SSB: 6 dB @ 1.
5 Section III Installation LOCATION Prior to beginning operation of the transceiver, a basic installation must be prepared. Installation of the transceiver itself is a rather simple procedure. In selecting the location for the unit, two basic factors must be considered: 1.
Section IV Operation CONTROLS AND INDICATORS There are eighteen controls, 2 meters, 1 LCD and 1 jack on the front panel of your 2010 GTL WX. A. CONTROL FUNCTIONS 1. POWER SWITCH. Press in to turn on radio. Press in, again, and release to turn off radio.
7 Section IV Operation (Continued) 6. SWR CAL CONTROL . In order for you to achieve maximum radiated power and the longest range, it is important that your antenna be in good condition, properly adjusted and matched to your transceiver. The Built-in SWR (standing wave ratio) meter lets you easily measure your antenna condition.
8 Section IV Operation (Continued) 15. PRESS-TO-TALK MICROPHONE . The receiver and transmitter are controlled by the press-to-talk switch on the microphone. Press the switch and the transmitter is activated; release switch to receive. When transmitting, hold the microphone two inches from the mouth and speak clearly in a normal "voice.

10 OPERATING PROCEDURE TO RECEIVE 1. Place the WX/CB Switch in the CB position. 2. Turn the set ON by pressing the POWER Switch. 3. Adjust the VOLUME for a comfortable listening level. 4. Set the Channel selector switch to the desired channel. 5. Set RF GAIN fully clockwise.
OPERATING PROCEDURE TO RECEIVE WEATHER BAND continued 3. If threatening weather is nearby, the National Weather Service may broadcast a 10 second alert tone. This tone will be heard through the CB, even if the WX/CB Switch is in the CB mode or the unit is turned off (see NOTE below).
12 RECEIVING SSB SIGNALS There are three types of signals presently used for communications in the Citizens Band: AM, USB, and LSB. When the MODE switch on your unit is placed in the AM position, only standard double-sideband, full carrier signals will be detected.
RECEIVING SSB SIGNALS continued Once the desired SSB mode has been selected, frequency adjustment may be necessary in order to make the incoming signal intelligible, the VOICE LOCK control allows the operator to vary frequency above and below the exact-center frequency of the received signal.
14 Section V Maintenance and Adjustment The COBRA 2010 GTL WX transceiver is specifically designed for the environment encountered in base station installations. The use of all solid state circuitry and its light weight result in high reliability. Should a failure occur, however, replace parts only with identical parts.
