Datron Spectre V
Article Abstract:
Datron, formerly Transworld, has developed the new menu-driven 30- to 88-megahertz radio called Spectre V. The radio is operated by four push-buttons laid out similar to a game console. Spectre V is driven by a PowerPC microprocessor, making it adaptable to future software-based upgrades such as electronic warfare protection. It features PC-type slots for additional cards such as a Global Positioning System receiver. Spectre V has a full-band frequency hopping as well as data and voice digital encryption.
