GENERAT DESCRIPTION
The Bearcat III is a table and motile model, single or dual
band FM monitor rectiver providing automatic scanning of B
channels in one or two of the three Public Safety/Business
Bands at 30-50mHz, L4,6L74mHz and 450-47OmHz-
Its features include: provisions for one or two plug-in
r-f modules; B plug-in crystals in any combination may be
used; high speed automatic or manual scanning; channel
switches to omit scanning of undesired channels; solid state
Iight Emitting Dode channel indicators; comtination squelch
arrd sensitivity control; front-mounted 3" x 5" speaker;
external speaker jack; cables for ll7Yac or l2Vdc operation;
and operation from a singfe tele*oflng
c
oqtjde
antenna.
The most advanced developments in solid state circuitry
are incorporated in this receiver; dud-gate \lOS Field Effect
r-f and mixer transistors provide low ncise and low cro$s-
modulation.
Single conversisr into monolithic guartz crystal
i-f
filters
reduces spurious responses and radiation
and
improves
selectivity;
linear inteEated
circuits
provide i-f
gri;,
detection, audio amplification
and output;
TTL I'C'
multivibrators
and gates provide scanning logic; desired chan-
nels are scanned with
no time lost scanning unwanted
channels.
