  • Anotaciones
  • The Electrophone TX3000 is a compact 40‑channel UHF CB mobile transceiver manufactured in Australia by GME under the Electrophone brand. Positioned as a practical, no‑nonsense communications set, the TX3000 offered reliable short‑range vehicle‑to‑vehicle communication for 4WD users, transport operators, and general mobile applications.

    Unlike the more feature‑rich TX4000 series, the TX3000 emphasised simplicity, durability, and ease of installation. Its slimline chassis made it suitable for dashboards with limited space, and its straightforward control layout appealed to both recreational and commercial users. The model became widely used in hire fleets, reflecting its robustness and low‑maintenance design.

    The TX3000 is representative of GME’s early UHF CB development period, where the company refined compact mobile platforms that would later evolve into the TX3xxx and TX6xxx families.
