The AOR AR5001D is the successor to the legendary AOR AR-5000+3 which has long been considered the best receiver money could buy.
The new AR5001D features the popular analog signal meter along with a large easy-to-read digital spectrum display. Up to three channels can be monitored simultaneously and its advanced signal detection capabilities detect hidden transmitters which may be operating illegally and also provide protection against eavesdropping by detecting miniature transmitters (bugs). Standard features include monitoring and storage of up to 2000 frequencies, 45 MHz IF digital signal processing, direct digital sampling, a high performance analog RF front-end, and a DDS local oscillator. The AR5001D can be operated by remote control using an optional LAN controller.
With an optional GPS unit, the internal reference oscillator of the AR5001D will be locked with the GPS frequency standard signal and provide 0.01 p.p.m. accuracy.
