duplicate system lightweight weather radar Weather Radar, already mandatory in some areas, will become essential equipment in many types of aircraft. A duplicate system is the obvious way to guard against the possibility of grounding due to equipment failure. Now, aircraft can be fitted with a duplicate system involving a total weight of only 103 lbs— yet providing maximum performance and operational efficiency. Ekco Lightweight Weather Radar makes this possible by the extensive use of transistors. The Ekco duplicate system employs two Transmitter/Receivers, two Indicators, a Scanner and Junction Box—and weighs less than competitive single systems! It not only saves space and weight but also reduces total power consumption to less than half that required by 60 kW systems. ; See Ekco Duplicate System Lightweight Weather Radar at the S.B.A.C.
