(7). Receiver Sensitivity: Better than the following values for message
reception with character error rate of less than 4%:
・ 1 μV to coaxial 50Ω input
・ 5 μV to unbalanced (
10Ω+150 pF) input
(8) Demodulator: Quadrature detector, crystal–controlled
(9) Mode of Reception : F1B with forward error correction
( ITU–R REC.
476–3, 540–1 and 625 B–mode
)
・ Single Frequency: Automatic reception and display of message
transmitted on 518 kHz or on user–selected second
receiver frequency (490 kHz or 4209.5 kHz)
・ Dual Frequency: Automatic, simultaneous reception of 518 kHz and
user–selected second receiver frequency (490 kHz or
4209.5 kHz), with automatic display of first
receiver’s live messages while storing second receiver
messages in memory when NAVTEX broadcasts
occur at both frequencies simultaneously.
