UPS Aviation Technologies description:
The revolutionary slimline SL40, first in the series of slimline offerings, combines the proven performance of II Morrows high-end products and the customizability of our portable products...all bundled into a conveniently small
1.3x6.25 package.
Two radios in one...thats the SL40 comm. The high powered transceiver is TSO certified and packed with innovative features not found on competitive units including active and standby flip-flop frequency monitoring, direct sunlight
readable alphanumeric display, easy access to National Weather Service broadcasts, a two-place intercom, and much, much more.
The SL40 gives you the ability to monitor ATIS while never leaving your assigned ATC channel. The frequency monitor function allows you to listen to standby frequencies while giving priority to the active channel, meaning youll never miss a transmission. With 8-watts of transmit power and only 35-watt DC input, the SL is power efficient and cool running.
The slimline series represents the next generation in navigation and communications equipment: small enough to stack in your panel, powerful enough to take you well into the next century. The Apollo slimline SL series...an amazing amount of power, in an amazingly small package.
