The AOR AR3030 advanced features include: DDS (Direct Digital Synthesizer) with patented NCO (Numeric Controlled Oscillator) that dramatically improves carrier to noise ratio. This all mode receiver tunes from 30 to 30 MHz. Ten Hz tuning accuracy insures precise tuning. A synchronous detector improves AM signals that are fading. The supplied 6 kHz filter is Collins and the 2.4 kHz is Murata. Manual uning is via the large, smooth main tuning knob. You may also enter desired frequencies directly via the keypad. A built in TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) provides 5 PPM stability. Other refinements include: AGC control with off position, large amber backlit LCD, analog S-meter, RF gain, Squelch, dual VFOs, RS-232 serial interface and 100 memories with scan. The AR3030 can also operate from eight AA cells stored internally. The rear panel has a BNC antenna jack. External power supply (12 VDC @ 1A) is the AOR AA3030.
