Abstract
A hand held navigational-communications transceiver is compressed into a case having a volume of about 37 cubic inches by defining functional implementation for VOR (VHF omni-directional range) navigation. The transceiver can be selectively switched to process and display directional radial information. A microprocessor circuit provides primary circuitry information in combination with transceiver function software held in ROM (read only memory). A plurality of pre-programmed frequencies may be selected.
