LICENSE DISCLOSURE:
- A
license to operate certain two way radios may be
required by your federal/local government.
Operating certain radio equipment without such
license may be illegal in your area. The end user
consumer is solely responsible for acquiring such
license and for the proper use of all radio
equipment.

- This
radio is an Amateur radio and not a CB
transceiver. Therefore, this radio is not
governed by Part 95 of 47 C.F.R, but by Part 97
of 47 C.F.R. Part 97 does not require type
acceptance of Amateur radios.

| The new DX 2517 Base Radio
replaces the DX 11B However, it is not
simply an upgraded DX 11B. The DX 2517 does not
have the familiar main PC board used in the DX
11B and all of our mobile radios. This is the
first model using the next generation main board.
|
ADVANTAGES OF THE NEW BOARD:
- Increased
frequency stability for improved sideband
operation
- Increased
sensitivity on both AM and SSB
- Conventional
parts (instead of surface mount parts)
are still used for ease of service
|
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS MADE:
- NOISE
FILTER CIRCUIT A unique Noise
Filter circuit increases signal-to-noise
ratio on weak signals. This circuit is in
addition to the Noise Blanker and
Automatic Noise Limiter circuits.
- TALK
BACK CIRCUIT Talk Back volume can
be set to any level or turned off
altogether.
- DISPLAY
Digits for both channel and
frequency displays have been moved
forward for improved viewing angle.
- METERING
A modulation scale (for use on AM
only) has been added to the signal meter.
Markings have been added to the signal,
power output and SWR scales to make them
easier to use. Also, positioning of the
two meters has been reversed for ease of
use -- the SWR/POWER meter is now on the
left, and the SIGNAL/MODULATION meter is
on the right, closer to the frequency
display.
- RX/TX
INDICATOR The LED above the power
switch is green during receive and red
during transmit.
