  • UHF AM Radio -  The Jotron series 3000 UHF digital radios are designed to provide ground to air communication for professional users in the air defence frequency range. The radios provide excellent audio performance together with unmatched RF performance in tough electromagnetic environments. The receiver maintains its good sensitivity even when strong locally generated signals are present on neighbor channels. The transmitter is designed to give a minimum of unwanted noise and spurious products. Delivered standard with AM capabilities, it can also be delivered with FM as an option. Another option is that both the transceiver and the receiver can be fitted with a Guard Receiver Module. This module is a separate AM receiver module, with separate audio outputs, operating on the user selectable frequencies 121.5 or 243.0 MHz.
  • UHF VHF Military Radio - The Jotron 4000 series defence radio system is intended for military communication applications, being designed as a multipurpose, multimode radio system covering both VHF and UHF ground to air frequency band. The 4000 series radio system meets the present and future requirements for ground to air communication. The radios are designed completely modular, with a construction for very rugged environmental conditions, fitting standard 19”, 3U subracks. This defense radio system supports multimode operational requirements including AM and FM narrow band, voice and wideband data. In addition, they are prepared for MSK and D8PSK.
  • Power Amplifier -  In certain applications, under special conditions, it might be necessary to increase the RF output power, for long range communication. For this purpose, Jotron has developed its own range of VHF and UHF Power Amplifiers. Utilizing state-of-the art technology, the amplifiers are designed with internal gain loop, providing a very low distortion and excellent gain flatness over the whole operating frequency range. Temperature controlled fan for lower noise figures and increased lifetime operation. Also containing internal bypass relays for main/stand-by and transceiver set-up, the amplifiers have internal auto switch to back-up power in case of power failure.
  • Remote Systems -  The range of base station radios from JOTRON, are optimized for remote operation over trunk lines, LAN/WAN networks, serial interfaces or other line formats adapted or interfaced to the standards available on the radios. As radios comprising both 4W E&M and In-band signaling for audio, ie. VCCS providers can use preferred format for best system performance. Jotron’s own range of remote control units, comprises units for audio, frequency selection and more sophisticated all radio access control. In addition, Jotron has its own advanced computer based Remote Access and Control System, RACS, intended for ATC or wide area control applications.
  • VHF AM Mobile Radio - In addition to a full range of base station radios, Jotron can also offer a compact multi purpose VHF AM transceiver. The radio is designed to be the recommended solution for applications where remote control of the radio is not needed. Flexible to AC or DC mains, with a battery pack solution. These applications are ground services at airports, vehicle installation, and portable emergency purposes. With ETSI, FCC and Marine standard approvals, this radio is also the natural choice for offshore installations, heli-decks and other applications where ground-to-air communication is essential. The unique RF technology and components conforming this high quality radio, utilize the battery capacity to a maximum.
