Table 1 illustrates the transceivers available in the TW7000 family. All are designed to meet the environmental specifications of MIL-STD-810 for shock, vibration, and temperature. The radio now includes as standard a DSP-based voice enhancement module to enhance the received voice quality. BITE capability, with fault detection down to the module level, is also standard in all TW7000’s. BITE messages are shown on the display to allow even unskilled operators to easily repair the radio at the field level.

Table 2 shows the internal options available for the TW7000 transceivers. For automatic selection of best channel and station-to-station linking, the TW7000 offers MIL-STD-188-141B automatic link establishment (ALE). High-level voice encryption, impulse noise blanking, and special data and CW filters are other embedded features that can easily be added to the standard transceiver.

A complete line of accessories are available for the TW7000 including RF booster amplifiers, antenna tuners, high-speed modems, rugged notebook computers, and HF E-mail and network management application software to provide comprehensive HF communications solutions. A variety of remote control options are offered including extended front panel control, long–range remote control, high-speed remote control, and computer control. Table 3 lists the accessory products that are available with the TW7000 family.

Table 1: Commercial HF Transceiver

The TW7000 can also be remotely controlled to provide a transceiver with both local (front panel) and remote control capability. (Datron also offers RC2, a complete programming and remote control software program that runs on a PC.)

All options are easily installed in the field using standard tools.

A variety of remote control options are offered for use with the TW7000. An extended front panel can be used as a controller for short distance (up to 50 feet) operation. Full-function remote control is achieved by using either the high-speed direct 2-wire link (2 km range) or FSK tones (unlimited distances) control console over any voice-grade 2-wire line. The TW7000 is also capable of full computer control from a PC utilizing a variety of interface standards. Both “remote-only” and “local-remote” configurations are available. The former uses a blank front panel, while the latter has the normal full-function front panel to allow multiple control points.
