RF Section The RF section of the UDR700 is a traditional dual- In the transmitter, the audio first passes through a DSP- conversion superheterodyne receiver. Once the controlled, dual-envelope analog limiter to prevent antenna power is combined, the RF signal is passed distortion from occurring on high level peaks.
UDR700 / UM700 / UT700 The 244 MHz from the first IF is reduced to the second The main audio output amplifier is set for maximum IF of 10.7 MHz, and is then fed to the Quadrature gain. This output passes through a passive attenuator Detector.
Long Battery Life UT700 Microphone Element The use of highly efficient circuits and switching power The UT700 includes the Lectrosonics VariMic supplies throughout the design allow over 4 hours of element. The VariMic is a cardioid condenser (back operation using a single 9 volt alkaline battery.

Encrypted Digital Wireless System Protecting the Encryption Key The encryption key is never displayed, and once a key transfer session is complete, the existing key can never again be transferred out the receiver’s security port. However, the key is stored inside the transmitter and the receiver, so you should treat the equipment as you would a key, storing it in a safe place for as long as the key is important.
