Forestry Mode: ASU-9000

Developed to meet the updated USFS radio requirements requiring multiple Main/Guard radios, Forestry Mode is an advanced software / hardware interface combination which allows the TDFM-9000 or TDFM-9300 to operate as either 2 or 3 Forestry type radios. VHF Main and Guard capability with defined main and guard module functions. Main and guard antenna ports are switched via the newly developed ASU-9000 to a single install for each Main/Guard pairing, allowing only 3 antennas in an installation rather than 6. Mic, Audio and PTT lines are also combined such that only 3 positions are required on the audio panel. Resulting in both significant cockpit, airframe, and weight savings.

Available on both the TDFM-9000 and TDFM-9300’s Forestry Mode addresses the space installation challenges in the cockpit and airframe associated with updated USFS communications requirements.
