Aviation Electronics: Details of Electrical and Electronic Apparatus with Applications in the Maintenance and Operation of Aircraft, Missiles and Space Vehicles

Abstract

Burndept Electronics (E.R.) Ltd. is now marketing a homing instrument for fixed or rotary wing aircraft which, when used with the company's SARBE personal and flotation beacons or similar equipment, gives a ground/air range of 150/200 miles at 30,000 ft. (60/80 miles at 10,000 ft.). It will pick up any radio distress signals on 1215 MHz (VHF) or 243 MHz (UHF). Trial orders have already been received from the U.K. Ministry of Defence and the Chilean air force.
