4) Microphone
The VOX microphone DM-6006X is included in the scope of delivery, which complies with the
new legal regulations regarding the necessary use of hands-free devices while driving. The
VOX function (Voice Operated Transmission) enables voice-controlled transmission without
the need to operate the PTT transmit button. It can be used to switch between VOX mode
and PTT mode.
VOX sensitivity
The VOX sensitivity setting determines the signal strength at which the automatic transmis-
sion mode starts. There are 4 levels available.
A long press on the [ q ] ( 20 ) key activates the VOX sensitivity setting, confirmed by a long
tone and the LED lighting up.
Pressing the button briefly switches to the next higher sensitivity level. The 4 available levels
are indicated by the number of confirmation beeps. For the highest level, select level 1 (a tone
is heard). It is not necessary to confirm the setting.
VOX delay
The VOX delay setting determines the dwell time in VOX transmit mode after the signal ends.
There are 4 settings available.
A long press on the [ p ] key ( 19 ) activates the VOX delay setting. confirmed by a long tone
and the LED lighting up.
Pressing the button briefly switches to the next longer dwell time. The 4 available levels are
indicated by the number of confirmation beeps. For the highest level, select level 1 (a tone is
heard). Confirmation of the setting is not necessary.
The microphone is connected with the 6-pin plug into the microphone socket (15) on the left
front of the unit. No transmitting or receiving operation is possible without the microphone.
5) Power source
Before connecting the unit to a suitable power source via the fused DC power cable (15), the
device must be switched off by turning the volume control ( 9 ) [ Off / Vol ] counterclockwise
to the very end until a clicking sound is heard.
Then, connect the two naked leads at the end of the cable with the supply voltage of the
car/lorry battery. The unit is designed to operate with 12 volts or 24 volts and a negative
ground electrical system. Lay the cable as far as possible away from aggregates which can
cause interference. Watch for the correct polarity during the connection.
BLACK connect to - MINUS / ground of the car battery.
RED connect to 12 volts + PLUS of the car/lorry battery.
If the power source is not disconnected after putting the engine off, the last settings will
remain stored, after the unit and the car are switched off.
After proper connection of the microphone, the aerial and power source, radio operation can
be started.

Operation of the TEAM TS-12vr
1) Switching on [ Off / Vol ]
To turn on the radio, turn the On / Off switch (9) [ Off / Vol ] clockwise.
With the help of the squelch control (8) you can set a comfortable volume level. Set the manual
squelch (SQ) to a level where the constant noise of an empty channel is audible - see paragraph
2) Squelch. Now, adjust the volume level. The memory function stores the last settings, i.e.
norm, frequency band and channel after turning the radio off and on again.
2) Squelch [ SQ / ASQ ]
The annoying, persistent noise that always occurs on free channels can be suppressed with
the help of the squelch function. The unit has an automatic squelch (ASQ) and a manual
squelch (SQ).
The automatic squelch is internally set to a fixed average value and is activated by turning
the squelch push button to the left stop ( 8 ) [ ASQ ]. The LED display (14) confirms the acti-
vated state of the automatic squelch.The ASQ value is set by pressing and holding the RFG
button (10). The display (3) shows the value from A1 - A5. This value can be changed by
pressing the UP/DOWN key. A1 makes the receiver most sensitive and A5 makes it least sen-
sitive.
To adjust the manual noise reduction, first turn the squelch control ( 8 ) all the way to the left,
then slowly turn the control to the right to increase the sensitivity. The control should only be
turned so far above the mute point until the noise is safely suppressed. When a station is
transmitting on the channel, the squelch opens and the signal is audible. If the squelch is set
too critically, a short noise may occur from time to time without a station being on the channel.
Further turning to the right suppresses increasingly weak stations, but also stronger interfer-
ing signals.
3) Channel selection [ q ] [ p ]
All channels can be selected by pushing the channel selector keys (5) [ qCH ] and (6) [ pCH ]
located on the front panel of the radio. The selected channel is displayed on the LED (3). No
channel selection is possible while the radio is in transmission mode. The channels are
arranged in a consecutive order, in a ring-like-system, i.e. after the highest channel number it
starts again with channel no. 1 and vice versa. For communication with a partner CB station,
both transceivers must be adjusted to the same channel and the same modulation type.
4) Modulation selection [ AM/FM ]
For the TS-12vr, the operating modes AM and FM are available. The selected modulation type
is indicated by the LED (13). To toggle between the modes press the mode key (4) [ AM/FM ].
If the selected norm does not accept the modulation type AM on the actual channel, it will
remain on the modulation type FM.
If the radio is set to AM on the actual channel, and you select another channel, on which the
AM mode is inhibited, the modulation changes automatically to FM mode. If you select once
more another channel, on which the AM mode is allowed again, the modulation switches auto-
matically to back to AM mode.
