Unprecedented Quality in Design and Construction .Handsome, Compact Styling. Innovative new features. Vertex delivers the Next Generation of Airband Transceivers. The VXA-100 Aviator Pilot transceivers by Vertex are the result of over 40 years of engineering experience in communications and handheld transceiver design.
In addition to all of the most advanced communications features, the Aviator Pilot includes updated and advanced navigation features. DVOR with TO and FROM indications, Automatic Bearing Centering System (ABCS) and large course deviation indicator (CDI) make VOR navigation a snap. |

| The Aviator series are the world's only airband transceivers that are rugged enough to pass stringent MIL-STD 810 testing. The durable high impact housing and unique clam shell chassis assures reliable performance even under the most adverse operating conditions. And Vertex's extensive rubber gasketing system around the housing seams, keypad, knobs, microphone jacks and speaker grill insures that the Vertex "Aviator" sets a new standard for water resistance among airband transceivers available today! |
 |
| The Aviator handheld transceivers have the ability to store up to 50 regular memory channels. The Aviator also comes pre-programmed with 250 Book memories (the most frequently used airband frequencies). Each memory channel can contain frequency, channel number, and Alpha Numeric title (up to 8 characters). In addition all of the Aviator's memory channels can be PC programmed with the optional CT-64 programming kit. |
| The Aviator transmits at a powerful 5 watts P.E.P. (at 9.6 V / 5 W typ., 1.5W carrier) out of the box. And it's loud, crystal clear transmit audioplaces its performance above that of any other handheld airband transceiver. |
 |
The Aviator receives all 10 weather report broadcast channels from the NOAA. To make operation easier the Aviator will automatically begin scanning when the weather band is activated and find the closest NOAA weather station. If more than one station is available in your area you can simply press the PTT switch momentarily and the aviator will find any other active NOAA weather stations. The Aviator will also remember which weather station that you were monitoring last.
 |
| But don't be intimidated by these advanced features. The Vertex Aviator is also the most user friendly aviation transceiver. Vertex's unique "one touch" control knob makes accessing the VFO, memory channels, weather channels and Book memories as easy as pressing a button. |
| The Aviator was designed with noisy aircraft environments in mind. The aviator provides loud undistorted audio through it's internal speaker. Built in side tone will allow the user to hear both transmitted and receive audio through an external aviation headset. (headset adapter included) |
| Tough and rugged aren't the Aviator's only features. It also boasts ultra compact size with styling and functions never seen before in an avionics handheld. It's loud, clear audio, backlit keypad and display, high contrast 8 character alpha-numeric display and built in side tone are everything that today's private pilot would want in a back up transceiver. |
| The Aviator allows easy access to the Menu "set" mode. Straightforward and intuitive, the Menu mode will allow you to set the programming parameters for squelch, clearing memory channels, scanning, scan lamp, keypad beep, battery saver function, keypad and display backlighting, and priority channel check time. Setting the more advanced features of an airband transceiver has never been easier. |
| Only the Aviator allows you one keystroke access to 3 different methods of display titling : Frequency, Channel number (WX, memory and Book memory) or Alpha-Numeric (memory and Book memory). |
 |
| The Aviator allows you to scan between two active frequencies (memory channel 1 and other frequency). When your Priority channel becomes active, the receiver will revert to the priority channel for operation. In the Priority Dual Watch mode, the Aviator will revert to the priority channel any time PTT is pressed. |
