AR8200 Mk3 hand portable radio receiver ADDENDUM (paperwork V1.0)
Due to continuous development of our products, the AR8200 has evolved into the Mk2 and Mk3 versions. As a result, operation
differs from the original AR8200 in a few areas, please note the following changes to the AR8200 operating manual:
1 The front ‘ten-key’ keypad has been rearranged in line with customer requests placing the ‘0’ zero key underneath the
‘8’ eight key, as is standard practice with push button telephones. On page 9 section 1-5-1 of the English language operating
manual, the graphic should now look like (the revised keypad has been used on the Mk3 and Mk2 versions):
2 The Mk3 and Mk2 versions feature a built-in TCXO (Temperature Controlled Crystal Oscillator) in place of the reference
crystal. This ensures the best levels of frequency stability and minimum spurii.
3 In place of the previous rubber covered aerial, a telescopic whip on a swivel base is supplied (Mk3 and Mk2 versions).
The whip provides the very best performance, especially on the VHF bands with the ability to adjust the length of the telescopic
whip aerial to ‘peak’ received signal strength (the higher the frequency, the shorter the aerial). An alternative flexible smaller
whip aerial is available as an option where durability and smaller size is important. Please refer to page 7 section 1-4 of the
English language operating manual, line two of the table should now read “telescopic whip aerial”.
4 The relationship between level squelch and signal meter has been revised. This affects VFO SEARCH LEVEL SQUELCH
(page 47 section 4-4-3 of the English language operating manual), SCAN LEVEL SQUELCH (page 68 section 7-8-2 of the
English language operating manual) and PROGRAM SEARCH LEVEL SQUELCH (page 84 section 8-7-2 of the English
language operating manual).
In each case, the following table replaces that previously employed:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
Mk2 8 13 18 24 29 35 39 44 50 55 58 62 71 77
Mk3 7 15 18 24 28 31 42 50 59 64 72 80 85 89
As a result, the typical level at which the “«” legend will be extinguished has changed.
5 The batteries supplied with the AR8200 have been changed. To ensure that a completely full charge is established, please
assume the full charge time as follows, this replaces the reference given on page 19 section 1-6-4 of the English language
operating manual.
AR8200 NiCads, 700mAhr 12 hour charge
Mk2 NiCads, 1000mAhr 14 hour charge
Mk3 NiMH, 1500mAhr 22 hour charge
