INTRODUCTION
When using an HF transceiver, the operator must continuously
adjust the frequency and/or change the operating channel in
order to create an optimal communications environment. Now,
the ALE (Automatic Link Establishment) feature performs these
operations automatically.
FEATURES
With the KPE-2 unit attached to the transceiver, you can both
transmit and receive the following:
•
Individual calls
•
Net calls
•
All calls
•
AMD messages
•
GPS data * (requires a GPS receiver)
•
Emergency calls *
•
Soundings
*
ALE is in accordance to the MIL-STD-188/141A protocol, thus the ALE
features of this transceiver are compatible with other brand transceivers.
However, the GPS data and emergency call features are
KENWOOD
specific features, and are therefor incompatible with transceivers other
than
KENWOOD
transceivers.
