BST-25/216 Synthesized Base Station Transmitter

BST-25/216 Synthesized Base Station Transmitter

The BST-25/216 MHz is a professional quality, auxiliary base station transmitter designed to operate with the PR-216 and PR-216 Option 7 synthesized receivers in the newly assigned 216-217 MHz band under Part 95 of the FCC regulations.

The BST-25/216 MHz transmitter incorporates the latest digital and analog technologies to produce low residual noise, wide dynamic range, and extended frequency response rendering the most natural sound possible from a wireless system.

This transmitter may be used for personal cueing, for tour guide applications, language interpretation, and for assistive listening applications.

Unique COMTEK features of the BST-25/216 MHz include:

  • 57 user-selectable channels in the 216-217 MHz range: 38 standard narrow-band, non-companded channels; 19 high-fidelity narrow-band channels with companded audio processing.

  • Single-window, bright LED display for exact frequency and channel, VU bar graph meter, antenna condition and lock-out indicator.

  • Test tone generator for receiver testing and audio level referencing.

  • Balanced mic or line level with 60 dB of control range to accommodate any audio level.

  • Microcontroller automatically sets the modulation deviation, the audio mode for companding processing, and the EQ when corresponding channels are selected.

  • Can be rackmounted for AC or 12 volt DC power and can accommodate a variety of remote antennas.
