Overview: The Technisonic TDFM-136B is a VHF/FM transceiver designed for airborne communication, compliant with Project 25 U.S. Forest Service standards. It supports both digital and analog FM communications across the 136 to 174 MHz VHF/FM band, serving as a direct replacement for existing Technisonic and NPX radio sets.
Key Features:- Multimode Operation: Supports 12.5 kHz analog and Project 25 12.5 kHz digital modulation on a per-channel basis.
- Guard Receiver: Includes a two-channel synthesized guard receiver.
- Memory Capacity: Offers up to 230 non-volatile memory positions, programmable via a front panel keypad or PC.
- Display: Features a 48-character, 2-line LED matrix display available in green or NVG compatible options.
- Signaling Support: Supports unique CTCSS and DCS signaling for both transmit and receive frequencies.
- DSP Technology: Utilizes Digital Signal Processor technology, independent of proprietary chip sets.
- Encryption: Supports DES single bit cypher feedback encryption, upgradeable to Project 25 DES OFB or AES encryption standards.
- USB Functionality: Allows programming via USB upload/download from a PC.
- Scanning Capability: Enables scanning across any or all stored channels.
- Design: Panel-mounted, self-contained unit with dimensions of 3.0” (H) x 5.75” (W) x 8.0” (D) and a weight of 3.5 pounds.
