Preface

Dear Customer,

Thank you for purchasing BECKER products.

We are pleased that you have chosen our product and we are confident

that it will meet your expectations.

AR620X-(XXX) VHF Transceivers are a modern family of communication

equipment that have comprehensive capabilities and significantly extend

the typical aeronautical transceivers.

Despite its small size and weight 620X- aircraft radio include inter

alia:

•Sensitive receiver which meets the most recent requirements of ED-

23C, including the ability to work in the offset-carrier (climax)

operation in 25 kHz and 8.33 kHz channel spacing (class H2).

•Receiver that includes SCAN (dual watch) mode. This allows

simultaneous monitoring of two different VHF frequency channels

without interrupting communication on the active frequency.

•High efficiency transmitter which delivers more than 10W modulated or

un-modulated output power at 28V supply voltage or 6W at 12V. Low

power consumption allows longer operation from battery.

•Extended built-in intercom which can work as:

o4-way intercom with isolation mode – passengers could continue

conversation or listening to music from MP3 player at the same

time as pilots talk via intercom or communicate with the tower.

o2-way intercom for tandem operation – pilot and co-pilot work

with separate controllers and can control their individual

audio parameters, like volume or VOX. This mode is preferred

especially for training due to full synchronization of LCD

contents.

•Non-volatile memory for storing:

o99 VHF channels can manually be labeled for storage of VHF

channels

o9 recently selected VHF channels are automatically stored
