• Nearly 40 dB dynamic range
A 40 dB dynamic range means, in line of sight
reception, no adjustment of RF gain is
required between 10 and 1000 meter range
between signal strength measurement
saturation to fringe detection.
• Graphic and/or numeric display of signal
strength
The signal strength can be displayed either
graphically, using a peak hold bar meter or
digitally with three digits of resolution.
Therefore, direction finding is made easy
regardless of user display preference.
• Scanning of user programmable frequency
tables
A set of any frequencies within the receiver
operating range can be programmed into a
frequency table for easy scanning of user
defined channels.
• 16 separate frequency tables
The Suretrack STR1000-W1 has 16 separate
frequency tables that can be stored in
memory. Each frequency table has an
assigned partition which is selected
depending on the table desired at any given
time or location. As a result, it is not
necessary to re-program the receiver each
time a separate field site with a different set of
transmitter frequencies is visited.
• Frequency Scanning Delete/Add Feature
While scanning the frequency table,
individual channels can be sequentially
deleted and restored from the sequence. This
is useful for reducing cycle time. As
transmitters are located it is no longer
necessary to listen to their frequency.
• Built in real-time clock
A built in real-time clock keeps the time of
day close at hand for reference when making
entries into written logs.
• Memory
The receiver is controlled by firmware
(software contained in permanent read only
memory) and cannot be overwritten or
erased. All other memory, including user-
specified parameters like frequency tables,
gain settings, time and date, are saved in
battery backed-up RAM. Back-up power is
supplied initially by the main batteries. If the
main batteries are discharged or
disconnected, an on board lithium battery
will provide memory protection for
approximately 6 months.
