MICOM-3F/3T/3R HF-SSB Owner’s Guide
132
Under bad propagation conditions or in an emergency, the operator can rapidly switch to static
operation by simply placing the self-supporting micomTrooper 3 harness on ground, and increasing
the transmit power to 50 W.
Under static operating conditions, the operator can easily connecting a dipole or another long wire
antenna instead of the whip, further increasing communication efficiency.
micomTrooper 3 is powered by a 16V, 12Ah rechargeable Lithium Ion battery, type ML1416-L. Spare
batteries can be carried in the backpack harness.
