The PTC-IIpro is the valued all round multimode Pactor controller for all applications, including remote control of short wave transceivers. In addition to the known possibilities and good workmanship of our PTC product line, the PTC-IIpro distinguishes itself in particular through its two expandable Packet Radio modems. These allow simultaneous operation of up to 3 radios on the PTC-IIpro, and thus the construction of gateways, which, particularly in amateur radio, is of great interest. The new DSP-II-module allows operation of robust HF-packet**. 

The Hardware

With two high performance processors from Freescale, the PTC-IIpro achieves outstanding flexibility.
Simultaneous standby in PACTOR, AMTOR and two separate Packet-Radio ports.
Sophisticated signal processing and analyzing, maintains a stable HF link even during difficult propagation conditions.
