User's Guide
The VT-3A130 Transmitter is a synthesized multichannel AM transmitter designed to interface
with the MT-3 Repeater Systems, while still maintaining MT-2 system compatibility. Both MT-3
systems are characterized by dependable low maintenance performance under the most severe
environmental conditions. In addition, all units are burnt-in for 24 hours and are accompanied by
a complete test report.
The VT-3A130 Transmitter operates in the 118 - 137 MHz aviation band. The transmitter’s
frequency stability is controlled by an OST-3A138 AM Enhanced Synthesizer. The Synthesizer
module can be programmed for up to 16 channels. A channel programmer can preprogram the
first 15 channels; channel 16 can be programmed from the front panel and channel 1 can be
programmed by the four BCD switches located on the MT-3 AM Transmitter Main Board.
The VT-3A130 modular transmitter family is compatible with all Daniel’s subrack and base station
enclosures.

Module Design:
Compact Eurostandard modular design. Plug-in modules mate with Daniels
standard MT-3 repeater subrack. Subracks and modules comply with IEEE 1101,
DIN 41494 and IEC 297-3 (mechanical size / modular arrangement).
External Connections:
RF Connection: Type N connector located on the transmitter module front panel.
Motherboard Connections (Audio, Power, and Control) are made through a 48 pin,
gold plated, type F connector on the rear of the transmitter module. User
connection is made through a mated “mother board” assembly of the repeater
subrack. Type F standard connector complies with DIN 41612 Level 2 (200 mating
cycles, 4 day 10 ppm SO2 gas test with no functional impairment and no change
in contact resistance).
