Small Radios now Available for Ultralights and Light
Aircraft
By ANN Correspondent Jon Thornburgh
Becker Avionics has come up with the solution to fitting a radio
(or "transceiver," as it's called in aviation) into an instrument
panel with limited space, or a small instrument pod that's bolted
to the frame of an ultralight. The answer is to separate the
control head, which changes the frequencies, from the "body" of the
transceiver, which actually processes the electronic radio waves.
In other words, the transceiver comes in two parts-the control head
and the remote transceiver.
