The AOR AR6000<\/p><\/div>\n

AOR has announced their latest (very) wide band receiver, the AR6000 last month at the 2013 Dayton Hamvention.<\/p>\n

As with most AOR equipment, the AR6000 comes at a premium price–$6,500 US<\/a>–but this receiver is quite unique in that it covers most of the radio spectrum 40 kHz to 6 GHz. I imagine AOR sells most of these to commercial and government entities; indeed it’s only available for export or government purchase here within the US.<\/p>\n

The AR6000 delivers continuous tuning from 40 kilohertz to 6 gigahertz in a wide variety of modes for professional monitoring performance that\u2019s nothing short of amazing in terms of accuracy, sensitivity and speed. Standard modes include AM, FM, WFM, FM Stereo, USB, LSB and CW. An optional module can add the capability to receive APCO25 digital communications plus an optional I\/Q output can be added to capture up to one megahertz of bandwidth onto a storage device for later listening or signal analysis.<\/p>\n

Designed for the monitoring or technical service professional, there are no interruptions in the AR6000\u2019s tuning range. With exceptional tuning accuracy and sensitivity throughout its tuning range, the AR6000 begins at the floor of the radio spectrum and continues up through microwave frequencies so it can be used for land-based or satellite communications. It works as a measuring receiver for those seeking a reliable frequency and signal strength standard. To support its broad spectrum, the AR6000 has two antenna ports, with the added capability of an optional remote antenna selector from the front panel of the receiver.<\/p>\n

With its popular analog signal strength meter and large easy-to-read digital spectrum display, the AR6000 is destined to become the new choice of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies, the military, emergency managers, diplomatic service, lab technicians, news-gathering operations and security professionals<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
