Vertex-Standard
VXA-150 Pro V Air Band Transceiver.
This product sets a new, higher standard of quality, features,
value and versatility for the avionics marketplace.
At the top
of a most impressive feature list is a full 5-Watts P.E.P. of
Transmit Output Power, ensuring that radio communications get
through when others may not. Rugged and water-resistant construction
is an understatement for the VXA-150 Series. Built to meet the
most demanding applications, Vertex Standard backs this product
with its outstanding 3-year warranty.
Versatility and user-friendly operation also set this radio
apart from the competition. The VXA-150 delivers 160 channels,
including all 10 NOAA weather broadcast frequencies, 50 MR Channels
and 100 Book Channels. A Vertex Standard exclusive is the “Automatic
Active Weather Channel Locator,” which scans for active
weather frequencies in the user’s area – automatically,
when the Weather Band is selected.
An 8-character alphanumeric, invertible, LCD display, on top
of the unit, provides indication of either the frequency, the
channel number or an alphanumeric label. Only Vertex Standard
offers one-keystroke access to these three methods of displaying
channel information.
The VXA-150 also allows the user to directly enter the frequency
from the 16-button backlit keypad. This eliminates the need
to store frequencies into memory before operating on them.
Another Vertex Standard Airband Transceiver exclusive is the
Receive Battery Saver feature. This automatic power-save function
extends normal operating time and maximizes the life of the
Ni-Cd battery by de-energizing the transceiver’s circuitry
in the standby mode.
Direct Frequency Entry via Back-Lit Keypad
Simply
enter the desired channel frequency directly from the 16-button
keypad, then press the PTT (Push to Talk) switch to transmit.
There's no need to store frequencies into memory before you
can operate on them. NiCD
Battery and Charger Included
Every VX-150
is supplied with the FNB-64 rechargable NiCD Battery and battery
charger, providing greater convenience and lower long-term operating
cost compared to radios requiring "AA" cells. And
the extended-life FNB-V57 NiCD Battery provides 50% more capacity,
for operation over long periods of time. 150
Memory Channels
50 Regular
Memory channels and 100 "Book" Memory channels can
store just about any commonly used operating frequencies. Convenient
Alpha-Numeric display titling makes recalling information stored
in the memory channels quick and easy. One
Touch Squelch Control
Breaking
the squelch threshold has never been easier. Press the monitor
(MON) button for 2 seconds and the Pro V's squelch remains opened
for monitoring weak and distant signals. Pressing MON again
restores squelch settings. This is TRUE one-handed operation.
No need to fumble with thightly spaced concentric knobs. Receive
Battery Saver
This feature
is designed to maximize the life of the supplied NiCD battery.
When the Pro V is in the standby mode the battery saver de-energizes
the transceiver's circuitry, waking it up at user-selected intervals
to sample for radio activity. If no activity is detected the
Pro V goes back into it's sleep mode. Current consumption is
minimized while battery life is maximized. This feature is only
found in Vertex/Standard airband transceivers. NOAA
Weather Channels (USA Version only)
The Pro
V can receive all 10 NOAA weather broadcast frequencies. Automatic
Active Weather Channel Locator (A Vertex/Standard Exclusive)
automatically scans for active NOAA weather stations in your
area when WX band is selected. Menu
Mode
The Pro
V allows easy access to the Menu ("Set") mode. The
"Set" mode is a straightforward and intuitive feature
for changing the operating parameters of the Pro V. This allows
easy user access to squelch settings, clearing memory information,
scanning, scan lamp, keypad beep, battery saver settings, display/keypad
backlighting, and priority channel check time. 3-Way
Display Tilting
Only Vertex/Standard
Airband transceivers offer you one0stroke access to three different
methods of displaying memory channel information: Frequency,
Channel Number, or Alpha-Numeric title.
Headset
Adapter Included
The CT-60
headset adapter is a convenient way to operate the Pro V with
your favorite aviation headset, intercom, and external push-to-talk
switch. The internal Monitor feature will allow you to monitor
your transmitted audio through your headset in noisy cockpit
environments. Other
