The AR3202 and AR3209 transceivers are an ideal solution for aviation professionals, who need the ultimate in performance and reliability. Because of their efficient design and rugged construction, the AR3202 and 3209 VHF/AM transceivers are particularly well suited to the demanding and harsh environments that helicopter typically operate in.

These transceivers have 760 channels that may be tuned in the frequency range of 118.0 to 136.975 MHz, with 76 channels with 25kHz channel spacing and 20 preset channels which can be stored for immediate recall. The AR3202 has a power output of 20W for extended range communications, and the AR3209 has 10W, with a power supply of 28 VDC. The complete system is housed in a single compact unit, which mounts in a standard 5 3/4 '' DZUS rails. There are no more interconnecting wires between control heads and remote transceivers which are typically associated with legacy radio systems. Additionally, the AR3202 and AR3209 do not require remote boxes, interconnecting cables, or forced air cooling like older generation products.

The radios are DZUS mounted in the center pedestal in the same location as original VHF/AM control heads, or they can be installed as a supplementary radio. The AR3202 and AR3209 are ideally suited to replacing older radios in aging aircraft to reduce maintenance costs. The installation time is estimated by Maxcraft to take 6 to 8 hours.

The AR3202 is lighter in weight and easier to install than competitive products with comparable performance. Like all Becker Prime Line avionics equipment, the AR3202 transceiver combines modern technology and compact size to provide superior performance. It contains the following innovative features:

Microprocessor controlled frequency generation, non volatile memory, double frequency LC-display for active and preset channels, and optoelectronic friction free frequency selection.

Operating temperature: – 40 °C to +55 °C

The AR3209 VHF/AM transceiver is ideally suited for aviation professionals, who need the ultimate in performance and reliability. Because of efficient design and rugged construction, the AR3209 transceiver is particularly well suited to demanding civil and military operational environments. 760 channels may be tuned in the frequency range of 118.0 to 136.975 MHz, and 20 preset channels can be stored for immediate recall. It has an output of 10 W, with a power supply of 28 VDC. The complete system is housed in a single compact unit, which mounts in standard 5 3/4 '' DZUS rails. It does not require the remote boxes, interconnecting cables, or forced air cooling of older generation equipment.

The AR3209 is lighter in weight and easier to install than any other manufacturer's product with comparable performance. Like all Becker Avionics Prime Line avionics equipment, the AR 3209 transceiver combines modern technology and compact size to provide superior performance.

Clear LC displays, readable in the brightest sunlight, show both active and standby frequencies, or in channel mode, the active and standby channel.
