Sailor 6000 MF/HF Transceiver
Product catalog
The 150W / 250W MF/HF transceiver with integrated DSC and telex is designed for maritime applications in voluntary as well as compulsorily fitted vessels. MF/HF transceiver has been certified and approved by the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping and Russian River Register. It offers simplex and semi-duplex SSB radiotelephone communication in the maritime mobile frequency bands between 1.6 and 30 MHz.
The basic version of the transceiver includes voice, DSC and a dedicated 2187.5 kHz DSC watch receiver, forming an ideal system for MF GMDSS installations (GMDSS – The Global Maritime Distress and Safety System).
The equipment consists of a compact transceiver control unit, a fully remote-controlled transceiver unit and an automatic antenna tuning unit.
The microprocessor-controlled Antenna Tuning Unit automatically matches the impedance of antennas between 8 and 18 meters in length and requires no presetting at the installation. The typical tuning time is 1 s. It is designed for outdoor installation and may be located up to 100 meters from the Transceiver Unit.
The Transceiver Unit contains all receiver and transmitter circuits. The fully protected solid state 150W / 250W
power amplifier cooled by natural convection matches a 50 ohm antenna system.
