The compact dimensions allow the T6TR to be conveniently used for both desk and rack mount operations. The radio supports both voice and ICAO defined data modes. The radio can be operated locally using the front panel controls, or remotely via flexible control interfaces. STANDBY mode allows the radio to be powered on and off remotely to ensure minimal current drain on local power supplies. A 100 channel memory allows immediate recall of stored frequencies. Frequency change can be inhibited to prevent unauthorised tuning. Both 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing are incorporated. The T6TR recognises frequencies entered in ICAO format and automatically adjusts to the correct channel spacing. For multichannel operation, any combination of 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing can be programmed. Careful implementation of DSP techniques significantly reduces the component count within the radio. This leads to increased reliability and reduced logistic costs. All modulation and demodulation processes are carried out using DSP algorithms that provide consistent long-term performance to further enhance equipment reliability. All adjustable parameters within the radio can be modified using the front panel controls, or from a computer connected to the headset/ diagnostics port, eliminating the need to remove equipment covers during the operational life of the radio. The use of innovative RF engineering allied to sophisticated DSP technology provides class leading performance. The advanced design of the T6TR transceiver allows operation in demanding co-site conditions, reducing the need for external filters. The transmitter employs a sophisticated feedback technique that minimizes spectral noise and enhances signal purity. The power amplifier is designed for optimum performance and maximum reliability and will support continuous operation applications. The receiver circuitry benefits from unique DSP implemented Digital Coherent Mute (DCM) technology. DCM uses specially developed algorithms that monitor on-channel activity and dynamically filter unwanted interfering signals. The receiver front-end has exceptional signal handling properties that ensure rejection of unwanted off-channel signals while maintaining excellent low level wanted signal performance. Two antenna ports are provided allowing maximum flexibility, these may be configured for separate receiver and transmitter antenna connections, or a single combined receive/transmit antenna. The use of separate antenna ports allows the T6TR to be used with filter multicouplers in larger system applications. A solid state T/R switching relay is used to provide both long-term reliability and the high speed necessary for VDL modes. Comprehensive Built-In Test (BIT) monitors both static and dynamic parameters. Results can be viewed on the front panel LCD and summarised via READY and ALARM indicators. All BIT data is available for remote monitoring via serial ports and transceivers can be readily networked for remote monitoring using the PAE Multi-Access Remote Control (MARC) or similar systems.
