UHF Transceiver TX472

he GME Electrophone TX472 series is a mobile UHF CB transceiver manufactured in Japan during the early era of 40‑channel UHF CB adoption. Designed for in‑vehicle use, the TX472 reflects GME’s characteristic emphasis on rugged construction, clear audio, and straightforward operation. The model was sold in several variants, with the TX472S regarded as the higher‑spec version within the series.
The transceiver operates on the Australian 40‑channel UHF CB band (476–477 MHz) and provides the standard 5 W FM output permitted under local regulations. Its feature set includes channel scanning, repeater support on channels 1–8, and a front‑facing loudspeaker for improved in‑cabin intelligibility. A detachable microphone and metal mounting cradle were supplied as standard accessories.
Internally, the TX472 follows the typical GME architecture of the period, employing a double‑conversion superheterodyne receiver and a robust RF power amplifier suited to continuous mobile duty. The unit was widely used in 4WD, transport, and general CB applications, and is representative of GME’s Australian‑made mobile radios prior to the introduction of the TX4000‑series chassis.
