All over the world, hams have been discovering how much fun it is to work HF without background noise. AOR set the pace in this breakthrough technology with its ARD9800.
Now, in response to worldwide demand, AOR has developed the ARD9000MK2 which makes digital voice communications even more affordable.
AOR's digital voice technology delivers audio quality you have to hear to believe.
Whether you are working digital voice across state lines or across an ocean, amazing doesn't seem strong enough to describe it.
With an ARD9000MK2, it's easy to convert existing HF analog transceivers to work digital voice with NO transceiver modifications.
The ARD9000MK2 automatically detects a digital signal and decodes it, so you also maintain full analog capabilities. Whether a contact comes in as digital or analog, the ARD9000MK2 can handle it.
