ELECTRONICS UPDATE New Color Video Sounder From Raytheon Offers Advanced Multi-Screen Presentations Raytheon's new JFV-200 Color Video Sounder offers a wide variety of advanced multi-screen presenta- tions, including split-screen A- Scope and horizontal or vertical split-screens. New, U.S. made, high technology, dual-beam transducers produce exceptional target defini- tion and bottom discrimination. Us- ing a high-resolution (512 by 512 pixels), ultra-bright 14-inch CRT, and dual-frequency transmitters (200 kHz, 50 kHz, 38 kHz, 28 kHz), with 3-kw rms output, this new color video sounder gives fishermen the leading edge yet, according to Raytheon, costs less that others in its class The JFV 200 offers ultra-high- efficiency dual-beam transducers with a combination of frequencies to maximize fish detection characteris- tics in the narrow-beam mode, and optimize bottom detail in its wide- beam mode. To get this extra meas- ure of clarity, operators simply flip the front-panel switch from narrow to wide-beam modes. Raytheon and JRC have worked together with professional fisher- men to develop the most effective, easy-to-use controls. Using the JFV- 200 unit's logical arrangement of rotary and keypad controls, fisher- men can choose a wide selection of high-contract, vivid pictures that are easy to understand. A choice of eight or 26 colors is available for video-sounding ranges to 5,000 feet, fathoms, or meters. Temperature graph, bottom lock, VRM expand, bottom discrimina- tion, midwater expansion, and A- Scope are a few of the displays avail- able from the JFV-200.
