A legendary design lives on in the Ranger TR-296 family of 40 channel all mode (AM/SSB) CB radios

Featuring advanced phase-locked loop circuitry with digital frequency synthesis, the TR-296 has been a favorite of serious CB operators who demand peak performance, ease of operation and attractive design.

The TR-296 is available in 6 different models to satisfy your preferences:
    The standard series offers your choice of gold on silver ( TR-296GK ), all chrome
    ( TR-296DX(C) ), or traditional silver front with black case ( TR-296DX(B) ).
This reliable, time-proven favorite is sure to enhance the looks of any installation, be it luxury automobile or 18 wheeler!

In the SSB mode, a six pole crystal lattice filter provides maximum selectivity. In the AM mode, the unit’s dual-conversion receiver with crystal filtering delivers peak frequency response with maximum adjacent channel rejection.

The transmitter features a logarithmic speech processor which assures maximum average talk power without flat-topping.

The simple, uncluttered panel of the TR-296 offers all the features desired in an all mode radio.
— AM and SSB Operation — External Frequency Counter Connector
— Gold on Silver or All Chrome Models — Phase-locked loop Circuitry
— Digital Frequency Synthesis — High Performance Receiver Design
— Maximum Talk Power without flat-topping — PA Capability
— Display Dimmer — LED RX / TX Indicator

Front Panel Controls Include:

— An illuminated S/RF/SWR meter for simple antenna tuning and performance monitoring

— Large Channel Selector Knob and Bright LED Channel Display for safe, enjoyable mobile operation.

— Clarifier and Received Audio Tone controls for accurate receiver tuning and improved reception under difficult conditions.

— Automatic Noise Limiter and Noise Blanker Controls to permit optimum elimination of vehicular noise.
Other front panel features include:
HI / LOW tone control,   BRT/DIM display switch,   Mike Gain Control ,   Squelch Control,   CB / PA selector.
