Radio Frequency Monitor Set AN/USQ-42 is a manpack or vehicular, portable, frequency modulated (fm) receiver. It is used to monitor signals from as many as 27 remote sensors on any one of 31 channels. When a sensor transmission is received, the AN/USQ-42 displays the remote sensor identity number on a front panel display and provides a headphone output of the received audio signal.

Overview

Radio Frequency Monitor Set AN/USQ-42 is a manpack or vehicular, portable, frequency modulated (fm) receiver. It is used to monitor signals from as many as 27 remote sensors on any one of 31 channels. When a sensor transmission is received, the AN/USQ-42 displays the remote sensor identity number on a front panel display and provides a headphone output of the received audio signal.

Radio Frequency Monitor Set AN/USQ-42 consists of:

  • Monitor, Radio Frequency, R-1561/USQ- 42
  • Bag, Cotton Duck CW-1033/ USQ-42 (carrying bag)
  • Base, Antenna AB-1093/USQ-42,
  • Antenna AS-2280/ USQ-42,
  • Digital Display Cable Assembly
  • Headset H-139
  • Harness, Electrical Equipment ST-158/USQ-42 (harness) is used to carry the R-1561/USQ-42 in manpack operation.
