INTRODUCTION
Tactical Technologies Inc. (Model number CST802VI),
is a 1 channel, .2 watt VHF FM synthesized voice transmitter
for law enforcement use. The operating frequency is only a 4 Mhz
section from 150 – 174 Mhz due to the narrow band antenna.
The unit utilizes an internal antenna and a single internal
microphone for transmitter operations. The CST802VI can be
equipped with an optional scrambler for added transmitter
security.

Operating Frequencies
The frequencies available on the CST802VI are spaced in 12.5 kHz steps
beginning with 150.0000 MHz and ending with 174.0000 MHz.
Simply put, “12.5 kHz steps” means your frequency must be in any of
the following configurations:
xxx . x000
xxx . x125
xxx . x250
xxx . x375
xxx . x500
xxx . x625
xxx . x750
xxx . x875
This gives the CST802VI the ability to transmit on any one of 280
available frequencies. Any other frequency selection will result in an error
message. Citation Receivers
Any of Tactical Technologies Inc. Citation Receiver/Recorder kits
(Series 20 and higher) are able to program frequency, power, and
scrambling settings into the CST802VI. A special Citation Interface Cable,
is supplied with the CST802VI for such an application.
See your TTI representative for more information. If
you already own a Citation 20 or higher receiver, programming
instructions are found in the Citation Operators Manual.

Range of the CST802VI Transmitter
It is impossible to state absolutes about how far an RF transmitter like
the CST802VI will transmit. Many variables affect the range of a device
including buildings, trees, weather, construction materials,
installation, etc.
All things being perfect (meaning transmissions are outdoors over flat
terrain with no obstructions), a .2 watt CST802VI should be able to easily
transmit over a ¼ mile. You should expect less distance than that
however, in a real world operation.
One of the most important variables, and one that the operator can
actually control, is the placement of the receiver and the receiving
antenna. A good rule to follow is the higher the antenna placement, the
better chance you have of quality reception. This alone will increase your
operating range. Just having the CST802VI in an ideal location is not enough.
