The RF-5200 And RF-5000: A quick comparison. RF-5200 family RF-5000 family Frequency Range 1.6 to 60 MHz 1.6 to 30 MHz Manpack Convertible Yes No Available Power Output 20 Watts 125 Watts (HF only) 150 Watts (HF/60 Watts VHF) 400 Watts (HF only) 20 Watts 125 Watts 400 Watts 1000 Watts MIL-STD-188-110A Serial tone Up to 2400 bps Tx 75 bps Rx MIL-STD-188-110A Serial tone Up to 4800 bps (with appropriate power amplifier) Internal Modems 39-tone up to 2400 bps 39-tone up to 2400 bps FSK up to 600 bps FSK up to 600 bps STANAG 4285 Detachable Front Control Head No Yes FalconJAN00.qxd 1/4/01 5:58 PM Easy to use even for inexperienced radio operators Page 6 Automatic channel selection and voice/data detection simplify operation. Operators no longer need extensive training to get the message through. Simply select the station or net you want to call, and you’re on the air. The Man Machine Interface (MMI) provides a user-friendly menu that guides you through the selection of modulation mode, modem presets, encryption keys and squelch setting. To simplify operation even further, you can configure access to operating modes, parameter selection and radio programming. As a result, even inexperienced radio operators can quickly learn how to use the FALCON systems on the field of battle or anywhere else. The backlit keypad and easy-toread, large-character alphanumeric display provide excellent visibility under all lighting conditions. The FALCON systems are also fully compatible with Night Vision Goggles. Automatic antenna tuning matches most whip, longwire, and NVIS antennas, as well as resonant dipoles. Comprehensive, built-in diagnostics maximize uptime by identifying failed modules and defective circuits. AN/PRC-138 Manpack Internal high-speed modems (39-tone, serial tone and FSK) transmit and receive data at rates up to 2400 bps. The rotary mode switch allows easy mode selection. Panic Zeroize position erases all channel programming, encryption and TRANSEC keys. The channel switch provides access to 10 preprogrammed channels or nets while the keypad provides access to all 100 preprogrammed channels. Menu-driven, user-defined, “point and shoot” operation for ease of use. FalconJAN00.qxd 1/4/01 5:58 PM Page 7 Add powerful new capabilities in minutes No bulky external boxes. No complicated upgrades. You can quickly upgrade your FALCON transceiver whenever you want, thanks to our plug-in option boards. Simplify HF communications with Automatic Link Establishment (ALE). This time-saving feature automatically establishes communication links on the best authorized channels available. The result? It dramatically reduces the need for skilled operators, because it makes the FALCON transceivers as easy to operate as a telephone. ALE also makes unattended and unscheduled operations possible. Transmit data reliably at high speeds. With a new, multi-waveform, high-speed HF modem, you can send and receive data up to 4800 bps.
