Raytheon Introduces
New Radiotelephone Equipment
Raytheon Marine Company is dedicated to manufacturing and dis- tributing the highest quality elec- tronic products and services to the commercial fishing, recreational boating, high seas and government markets.
The three operating brands within Raytheon Marine are Apelco,
Autohelm and Raytheon.
The company recently introduced several new units.
Ray-201 and Ray-202 VHF-FM
Radios
Raytheon's new Ray-201 and Ray- 202 Scanning VHF-FM radiotele- phones are built to withstand the toughest conditions. Rugged water- proof housings and shieldings en- sure "noise free" operation. Key features on both of the new radios include: all U.S. and international transmit/receive channels, plus 10 weather channels; scanning fea- tures which include all-scan, select- scan and a new dual watch mode; five-minute transmit time-out, a power saver which reduces the unit to one watt after five minutes of activity; quick channel select, which works like a car radio in that the user selects five of the most used frequencies to dedicated memory keys; built-in voltmeter; and a trans- mit modulation bar graph.
The Ray-202 includes several ad- ditional benefits such as a powerful 10-watt hailer with fog signal, which automatically reverts to listen mode to amplify distant or faint sounds, and a built-in scrambler to keep conversations with other Ray-202 units confidential.
Both units feature rotary knobs for channel selection, squelch and volume, and have a large, easy-to- see back lit LCD display to show the current mode and channel in use.
Measuring approximately 4.3-inch by 7.6-inch by 3.9-inch, both units feature 25-watts of output.
Ray-105 VHF-FM Radiotele- phone
Raytheon's Ray-105 VHF-FM ra- diotelephone is a waterproof, hand held unit with six watts of power.
The unit features select scan; the new dual watch mode which adds the weather channel to standard dual watch for urgent weather up- dates; 92 receive, 53 transmit and 10 weather channels; and an ultra- sensitive receiver for crisp incom- ing transmissions.
Three power-saving features in- clude: six-watt output which reduces to one-watt, and further to ,1-watt for in-harbor usage; sleep mode re- duces power after 60 seconds of in- activity and returns to normal power upon receipt of incoming transmis- sion; and a low battery indicator.
Also included as standard is a wall-mount battery charger, belt clip, hand strap and nylon carrying case. Raytheon Marine Co., a divi- sion of the Raytheon Company, employs more than 500 people world- wide and is based in Hudson, N.H.

High Torque Outputs And
Speed Ranges From Folk
Fluid Power Drives
Fluid power drive systems from
The Falk Corporation feature a power unit, output unit and control panel packaged together to create optimum performance and long life.
The closed-loop technology of Falk fluid power drives (FPD) provides a compact system with high torque and broad speed range capabilities, the manufacturer claims. Benefits of the Falk FPD systems include: stepless speed control up to 500:1; controlled torque during accelera- tion, running and deceleration; and regenerative braking.
Falk's standard power unit con- sists of a support frame for the cou- pling, connected pump and prime mover.
The frame encloses an oil reser- voir and heat exchanger, which can be either air- or water-cooled. Stan- dard drive systems offer from one to 250 hp. In addition, control stations range from simple mechanical to high-performance electric-hydrau- lic servos.
A filtration system consisting of a suction filter, filter indicator, air breather and filler assembly is de- signed to keep contaminants out.
Falk fluid power drive systems feature a power unit, output unit and control panel.
Optional accessories for mount- ing on the power unit include: over temperature, high pressure and low level switches; immersion heaters; and modulating line filters. Modu- lating valves for water cooled sys- tems and thermostatic switches for air-cooled systems are available.
