PRESCOTT, Ariz., June 3, 2003 - Wulfsberg
Electronics will introduce next month the world's first digital tactical
FM radio with a color LCD display. In addition to its brilliant display,
which highlights critical information in an easy-to-read format, the P-2000
is the first panel-mounted, multi-band radio ever offered by Wulfsberg™.
Deliveries will begin in July to an unnamed federal agency.
The company will showcase the new Flexcomm™
equipment at the Airborne Law Enforcement Association annual conference
in Wichita, Kansas, in July.
The P-2000 panel-mounted transceiver is
the newest member of Wulfsberg's venerable Flexcomm family. It will complement
the powerful C-5000 and RT-5000 multi-band transceiver already in use
by public service providers worldwide.
The P-2000 delivers APCO Project 25 functionality
and interoperability on one or more public service bands. The P-2000's
small Dzus rail footprint belies its robust performance on the VHF, UHF,
and 800 MHz bands.
"The P-2000 is a cost-effective solution
for many public service missions that do not require 30-960 MHz RT-5000
full-band capability," said Walter Crawford, vice president of marketing
and sales for Wulfsberg. "At the same time, it's quite powerful and
offers multiple bands and configurations for maximum flexibility, making
it ideal for airborne law enforcement, air medical rescue, homeland defense,
and other public service operators."
Wulfsberg Electronics is the leading supplier
of Flexcomm multi-band, airborne FM/AM radio communications systems. Additionally,
Wulfsberg designs and manufactures a complete line of Chelton™ Nav/Com
