Harris Gets Subcontract To Supply HF Equipment For Canadian Frigate Program

Harris HF Communications Group of Rochester, N.Y., is under subcontract with Paramax Electronics, Inc. of Montreal to supply HF communications equipment for the Canadian Navy under the Patrol Frigate Program. The HF equipment to be supplied is from Harris' extensive standard HF communications product line, and will include receivers, transmitters, performance monitors, and antenna couplers.

The Harris RF-590 receiver, for example, is now the standard HF receiver for the Canadian patrol frigate, and will be installed in six new frigates being constructed for the Canadian Navy. These receivers are manufactured in Dorval, Quebec, at Harris Farinon Canada, Inc. RF Communications Canada Operation, as well as at the main plant in Rochester.

The RF-590 covers the 10 kHz to 30 mHz range, and represents the latest in high-technology advances, with microprocessor functions providing easy operation and adaptability.

It is a companion to the Harris RF-1130-01 1-kw transmitter, also a part of the CPF program. The latter unit features the Harris RF- 1310 solid-state exciter, and is used to cover the 1.5 to 30 mHz frequency band.
