New Unit Features 8.33 kHz Channel Spacing And Integrated
Intercom
Becker Avionics has
added the new high performance, compact, AR6201 VHF-AM Transceiver
with 8.33 kHz channel spacing and integrated voice activated (VOX)
intercom system for up to four passengers to it's radio lineup. The
AR 6201 continues the legacy of its predecessor the AR4201 VHF-AM
transceiver, which has set the bench mark for reliability and
performance. With more than 18,000 units sold, the AR4201 has been
the trustworthy companion for thousands of pilots flying millions
of flight-hours.
The new AR6201 is built using state-of-the-art DSP (Digital
Signal Processing) technology resulting in a highly efficient
transmitter and very sensitive receiver. The AR6201 represents a
quantum leap forward in technology, performance, technical
sophistication and robustness.
The AR6201 operates on a frequency range of 118.000 MHz to
136.990 MHz with selectable channel spacing of 25kHz or 8.33 kHz.
Standard or dynamic microphones can be used. A voltage meter and
OAT (Outside Air Temperature) readout with optional temperature
sensor is built in. By blending a VHF-AM Transceiver and voice
activated (VOX) intercom system into one single, attractive unit
the operator will not need to invest in a separate intercom system
(up to four seats). Further, the new dual monitor mode allows two
channels to be received to provide the ability to scan for radio
traffic with the built in intercom.
The AR6201 display color and lighting will be compatible to the
BXP6401 in the colors "green" and "white-blue". An automated
built-in-test procedure increases flight safety and reliability.
The AR6201 is mountable in a 2 ¼ inch standard instrument
hole. The AR6201 will be pin to pin compatible with the AR4201 in
order to ensure easy upgrade and replacement.
The new AR6201 will be ETSO and TSO certified and available in
the fourth quarter of 2009. The AR6203, the 160mm variant of the
AR6201, will be available by the end of 2009.
