Both NAV and COMM frequency displays on these units
incorporate the popular flip-flop preselect feature. So, you can set
up en route or approach frequency changeovers well in advance of your
actual transition point or ATC handoff sequence for true stay ahead
flight management. Just select your upcoming NAV or COMM frequency
in the standby (STBY) display, and youre all set to flip-flop it into
active status at the press of a button. This function may also be controlled
from an optional remote mounted switch. Both active and standby frequencies
are displayed simultaneously, so you never have to worry about whats
being stored. And theres no chance of inadvertently erasing a frequency
just when you need it most. An innovative non-volatile memory circuit
holds all the displayed frequencies in storage through
aircraft shutdowns or momentary power interruptionswithout the need for
battery power of any kind.
Large, self-dimming, microprocessor controlled
gas discharge readouts and solid-state electronic tuning provide fast,
accurate selection of all 200 NAV and 760 COMM frequencies and both
the KX 155 and KX 165 feature a built-in 40-channel glideslope receiver.
On the COMM side, the KX 165 system gives you 10 watts minimum transmitter
power for maximum range and clarity. And on the NAV side, the KX 165s
useful Radial feature offers you an instant readout of the radial youre
on (from the active VORTAC station), digitally displayed in the standby
NAV frequency window. Must be installed by Aircraft Spruce Avionics
or another King dealer. |
