peer agreement (net): +2combi(nation) radio Explanation: Design Specifications. The ARC-182 was designed to be the US Navy standard combination radio for various tactical aircraft. Previous systems were composed of individual radios for each major frequency band. The capability to communicate at the VHF-FM (30 MHz-88 MHz) close-air support, VHF-AM (108 MHz-156 MHz) air traffic control, and UHF-AM (225 MHz-400 MHz) military frequency ranges required at least three separate radios. The sheer size and weight of these units incurred a significant penalty for aircraft equipment installation volume, weight and primary power allocations. http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:9onvi8-IwfwJ:www.foreca... Air Force now uses a Talon Hook UHF/GPS combination radio American pilots now use the Talon Hook which is both a UHF FM radio and a GPS receiver. Its radio signal is encrypted to prevent the bad guys from listening in. The GPS receiver is accurate to the radius of a chopper’s rotor blades. http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:ozTUaLfTJjoJ:www.gpsnav... COMM/NAV Radios Pictured is a combination radi which allows the pilot to communicate with Air Traffic Control and use GPS to navigate. This example even uses a virtual moving map to display the aircraft position. http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:-N_Pxr7cnKsJ:troop509.o... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2009-11-04 16:50:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- jccantrell's suggestion is definitely another possibility, i.e. <multi[-]band radio e.g.: Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), an international communications and information technology company, successfully demonstrated its new Falcon® III multiband manpack radio during a 10-day U.S. Army exercise that focused on integrating new networking technologies into the Patriot missile communications system. The U.S. Army exercise is part of a transformational Army program designed to prepare Patriot to be part of the next-generation Army Integrated Air & Missile Defense - System of Systems. http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:xCp_0Mpgn4IJ:news.thoma... DYNAMO MULTI-BAND RADIO. Be prepared with our dynamo and solar powered 12 band radio. This radio is the most versatile radio we have ever seen. It plays AM (530 to 1606HHz) , FM (88-108MHz), Television Channels 1 to 12, and 8 Short-wave bands (5.90 to 21.95MHz). Features three, that is right, three (3) power sources so you will never be without information, matter what the situation. **** DYNAMO GENERATOR is powered by an ingenious integrated hand crank powers a generator that charges the included ni-cad batteries. Crank to charge ratio of approximately 1:3. **** BATTERIES, operates on two (2) D batteries. (not included) ****AC/DC ADAPTOR, (not included) 3volt. Our multi-band radio is equipped with a red power indicator light, a carry-strap, ear plug jack for private listening, and telescopic antenna. This radio is a must have for power outage situations. Lightweight and compact, measures 8" long x 4.5" tall x 1.5" thick. (This radio is much more compact, lighter, and more versatile than the BayGen® radio, at a fraction of the price.)
