FLIGHT International, 13 February 1964 We left the gears and shafts out of our new solid-state transceiver, and what does it get you besides lighter weight and smaller siz ? Gone are the troublemaking mechanical parts, replaced by dependable transistors and diodes. You even tune elec- tronically with the new Bendix® RTA-41 VHF Communi- cations Transceiver. MTBF projects to ten times the reliability of earlier equipment! Built-in monitor and self- test circuits give you a valid confidence check. Of course, you get all the other benefits of solid-state design in the RTA-41: less weight (17 lbs.); smaller size (a scant half ATR); less power drain. Transmitter output is 25 watts; receiver sensitivity, 2 microvolts for a signal- plus-noise to noise ratio of 6 db. You also get Super Squelch, a Bendix development that quiets the receiver when there's no signal, even in high-noise areas. It'll open on signals as low as 10 db below noise level. You simply set it once, forget it. The RTA-41 equals or betters all ARINC 546 requirements. It provides 680 crystal-controlled channels (50 kc spacing) in the 116 to 150 me range, or 360 channels at 118 to 136 me; also optional 25 kc circuitry for any foreseeable needs. We developed this unit for second-generation jet air- craft. Several airlines have specified it already. Its size, weight and price qualify the RTA-41 for business aircraft, too.
