Radio-Holland (continued from page 37) ble, modular communications system appropriate for virtually any class of vessel. The 400-watt transmitter and matched receiver cover the frequency range from 1.6 to 27.5 MHz. The standard system configuration consists of receiver, transmitter, exciter, and power supply in a compact cabinet, plus autotuned antenna coupler. Fre- quency selection is via convenient keypad, and readout is by large LCD. System flexibility provides even more. With the addition of either the Sailor H1240 radiotelex moden/ H1249 video display/printer pack- age, the user has a fully automatic telex system operating in the ARQ mode in full duplex or on just one antenna on a single simplex frequency. Radio-Holland also announces that, for compulsory ship equip- ment, the FCC has type approved the Sailor main/reserve 500 kHz SOLAS station. This system, based on components from the Program 1000 series, consists of a main 400-watt, 500 kHz radiotelegraph transmitter with auto alarm re- ceiver and main receiver, operat- ing directly from ship's mains. Plus, a reserve system that oper- ates from a 24-volt dc battery and consists of a 100-watt reserve transmitter, auto alarm keyer, and reserve receiver. Both of these communications systems provide unique advan- tages for shipowners. They are ex- tremely compact and simple to in- stall. They are also very economical, primarily because they utilize standard units from the Program 1000 series and are pro- duced in a factory that has an an- nual output exceeding 20,000 mar- itime radiotelephone sets. In addition to the SSB radio sys- tems, Radio-Holland also distrib- utes the full range of Sailor VHF sets. Both the RT144 simplex/ semiduplex and the RT146 full du- plex radios are familiar to most mariners. Both sets offer digital frequency synthesis, dual watch capability, and compact design, but the RT146 features a trans- ceiver unit that can be mounted anywhere and supports an unlim- ited number of full-function con- trol stations. In the near future, a new super- compact 25-watt VHF, the RT2047, will be available. This radio, measuring just 4V2 inches high by 8V2 inches wide by IOV2 inches deep, features full duplex opera- tion, plus up to 60 private chan- nels, dual watch, quick channel 16, selective calling, built-in scan- ning capabilities, built-in loud- speaker, and a large LCD display that shows systems functions in use. RAYTHEON MARINE Circle 50 on Reader Service Card Among new products from Ray- theon Marine Company of Man- chester, N.H., the 1210 Mariners Pathfinder'1 Bright Display radar, a 12-inch unit, meets IMO dual- radar requirements on ships. Like the company's 16-inch Mariners Pathfinder, said to be the indus- try's most popular large radar, the 1210 has Raytheon's exclusive Bright Display system that per- mits simultaneous viewing by sev- eral people, even in daylight. The 1210 radar has two-level video, which helps enhance target clarity by improving differentia- tions between rain and sea clutter and other targets. A target "stretcher" automatically enlarges small, distant targets to make them easier to see. The unit's au- tomatic, full-time interference re- jection stores and compares sig- nals from successive sweeps, then displays only consistently posi- tioned signals. This feature also helps insure the alidity of Sea- guard intrusion alerts. Raytheon's exclusive built-in Seaguard moni- tors a 360-degree safety zone from Va to 64 nautical miles, and has visual and audible target alerts. Eleven radar ranges are provided from V4 to 64 nautical miles. Raytheon's Raypath Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA), a low- cost unit introduced only a year ago, meets all IMO requirements for high-seas vessels. The Raypath is exceptionally compact, yet uses * Session 1 WORLD GAS SUPPLIES Chairman: G.H.B. Yerberg, Director-General for Energy.
