Part of: 618S-1A
Antenna: Aircraft Wire Antennas
Description: Radio Set 618S-1 is an airborne liaison type HF communications system for air-toair and air-to-ground communication. It is used primarily for long-range communications on cargo and transport aircraft. The equipment consists of a transmitter-receiver, a dynamotor power supply, and automatic antenna tuner and a radio set control. the transmitter-receiver operates on an one of 144 crystal-controlled frequencies that are selected by the operator. A common crystal controls transmitting and receiving frequency on selected channels. The automatic antenna tuner normally is used to match the impedance of the aircraft antenna to the 52-ohm output of the transmitter. The radio set is designed to operate with any HF AM system having the same frequency range.
