RX Telefunken E-1800/A →
HF Communications receiver
- this page is a stub
The E-1800/3
is a high-end professional HF communications receiver,
manufactured around 1985 by
AEG Telefunken (later: DASA) 1
in Ulm (Germany), as the successor to
the analogue E-1700 range.
It is suitable for intercept, direction finding, radio monitoring
and other applications.
|
For a long time, the E-1800/3 was arguably the best HF receiver in the
world, and its impressive specifications were only countered by the
DSP-based E-1800/A
and by the ICOM IC-R9500.
This page currently acts as a placeholder for future information about
this receiver.

The E-1800/3 is part of a family of devices of which certain components
could be mixed between models. It is therefore possible that certain
plug-in units have model numbers in the range 17xx, but also in the range
19xx. The complete series consisted of the E-1700, E-1800 and E-1900.
The first (analogue) E-1800 model was introduced in 1985 and was considered
in many reviews as one of the best receivers ever produced.
It was followed by the E-1800/3 that had a much improved front end.
In 1994, the range was completed by the
E-1800/A, which adds DSP signal
processing to the design, and offers (optional) modulation types like
QPSK and pulse modulation.
The VHF/UHF variant of the E-1800/3 is known as the
E-1900/3.
It has a frequency range from 20 to 1000 MHz. It share the same accessories
and some of the plug-in modules of the E-1800.

Over the years, Telefunken
products were also sold under the AEG, DASA, EADS, TST
and Racoms brands.

For a visual inspection of the frequency spectrum around an intercepted
signal, it is possible to connect the PSG-1800 panaramic display to
the IF output of the E-1800 receiver.
The device features a crisp and clear EL Display and can be used to view
the spectrum from two receivers simultaneously.

Radio modem with FEC
ETM-1800
|
|
|
ETM-1800 was the first generation of high-end HF modems with advanced
error-correcting features like Forward Error Correction (FEC) and
ech-cancelling. It was developed in the early 1980s and is housed
in a 3U 19" rackmountable enclosure, similar to the case of the E-1800.

ETM-1810 is a high-end HF radio modem with advanced error-correcting
features like Forward Error Correction FEC) and echo-cancelling,
housed in a 1U 19" rackmountable enclosure.
The ETM-1810 was introduced in 1985 and is the successor to the ETM-1800
listed above. It was commpnly used in combination with the ARCOTEL
ACT-1810 data processor, and is often found as part of FARCOS, MAHRS
and HF-7000 special-forces systems.

Radio modem with FEC
ETM-1820
|
|
|
The ETM-1820 is the successor to the ETM-1810 (featured above).
It features a 2-line LCD display and has some additional controls,
but is otherwise functionally identical.
The ETM-1820 supports many civil and military communications standards
and protocols, most of which are soft-loaded and can be ordered as
an option.
