4280 - Tactical Chirpcom® Transceiver

A new concept in portable HF transceivers

 

CONNECTIVITY, FIRST TIME, EVERY TIME

For messages which must get through, a portable HF transceiver that combines Chirrpcomm® spread-spectrum communications with superior fixed-frequency communications based on Chirpsounder® frequency management.
 
Built-in Chirpcomm transmitter and receiver for highreliability 40-character emergency or orderwire (circuit coordination) communications.
  • Automaticaily receives and stores up to 24
    Chirpcomm messages without operator action.
  • 2-30 MHz bandwidth Chirpcomm spread-spectrum modulation ensures reiliability under all propagation conditions.
Optimum fixed-frequency communication management provided by Chirpsounder transmitter and receiver combined with spectrum occupancy receiver.

Automatic frequency ranking of any selected frequency list from 24 lists stored in non-voiatile memory, eliminating operator frequency selection tasks.
Multi-function 25-watt HF transceiver provides simplex or half-duplex USB voice, data, or CW communications.

2-30 MHz full spectrum coverage synthesized in 10-Hz steps.

2400 channels stored in 24 lists of 100 frequencies.

Menu-driven controls with extensive prompting for ease of operation.

Low DC power consumption provides up to 30 hours of operation from one rechargeable battery pack.

Compatible with BR 7120 or 7057 Automatic Antenna Tuners, 5150 100-watt RFPA, and 6110 AC Line Power Supply.

For the first time, all of the field-proven features that virtualiy guarantee quality HF communications are incorporated into a single, battery-powered, portable HF transceiver. The BR 4280 Tactical Chirpcomm Transceiver is a Chirpcomm transceiver, a high-performance 25-watt fixed-frequency transceiver, and a Chirpsounder-based frequency management processor all in one unit. The 4280 eliminates the trial and error methods of HF radio communications by providing ultra reliable orderwire and emergency message communications via Chirpcomm. In addition, superior fixed-frequency communications result from Chirpsounding - the most wideiy used real-time HF frequency management tool in use today.

For short message or orderwire traffic, nothing is easier or more reliabie than Chirpcomm. Automatically send and receive 40-character messages without the burden of frequency selection or link establishment tasks. Simply enter the message to be sent, and the rest is automatic.

The 4280 is available with a variety of optional accessories for the best fit to any application. Accessories include automatic tracking antenna tuners, a 100-watt RFPA, and an AC line power supply.
