FIXED BASE RDF ANTENNAS
Rugged, weather sealed and
transportable, the DFA series is readily mast- or tower-mounted for fixed-site
DF applications. Being of a true H-Adcock design, they avoid the erratic
performance characteristic of loops and provide superior sensitivity and
listen-through capability over many pseudo-Doppler designs.
The signal processing offers
ultra-high signal handling capability in dense RF environments. A supplied
isolation mast assures symmetrical, continuous-frequency performance which is
not distorted by a supporting mast, tower or changes in height. The elements and
isolation mast are removable for storage and transport.
The DFA series “personality
module” communicates directly with all B series bearing processors via a single,
8 meter, RS-232 digital interface cable (custom cable lengths are available),
displaying the antenna model and frequency coverage on the DF processor to avoid
out-of-band operation.
The DFA series is ideally
suited for law enforcement, surveillance, SIGINT, frequency management,
interference location, search and rescue, scientific, and other applications
requiring professional quality, radio direction finding.

MOBILE RDF ANTENNAS
This rugged, compact,
lightweight, low profile, weather-sealed mobile RDF series is easily installed
on cars, vans, aircraft, or any platform having a sizeable metallic ground
plane. The elements are easily removed for shipping and storage.
The DMA series “personality
module” communicates directly with all B series bearing processors via a single,
4.5 meter, RS-232 digital interface cable (custom cable lengths are available),
displaying the antenna model and frequency coverage on the DF processor to avoid
out-of-band operation.
Nylon mounting straps for
vehicle roof-top installations are anchored with rain-gutter hooks, and are
looped into the slots of the 1/8" thick bottom plate. A rubber mounting pad is
adhered to the bottom-plate for vehicle paint protection.
For sturdy, permanent,
bulkhead mounting, the bottom-plate flange has 8 quarter-inch holes; for this
application, the mounting pad can be supplied detached from the bottom-plate
upon request.
The DMA series is ideally
suited for law enforcement, surveillance, SIGINT, frequency management,
interference location, search and rescue, scientific, and other applications
requiring professional quality, radio direction finding.

DRD-100 REMOTE DISPLAY UNIT
PRODUCT DATA SHEET
The compact DRD-100
remote display unit was developed for the convenience of close, confined
quarters as in mobile and cockpit applications. The display is identical to that
shown on the DFP-1000B/DFP-101B to which it is connected, showing polar and
numeric bearings, signal strength, operating mode, IF bandwidth, DF antenna
model with its frequency coverage, and other information as well. Measuring
only 3.2" x 5.0" x 0.75” and weighing a mere 7 oz., the unit is supplied with
Velcro strips for mounting on a dashboard or instrument panel. A 3 meter
interface cable is included; custom lengths are available.
