Garmin GTR® 205 VHF COMM Radio For Certified Aircraft
Overview
|
Designed for both fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, the GTR 205 is a versatile radio that can serve in a variety of aircraft types and panel installations. The 1.3-inch height form factor matches previous-generation SL30 and SL40 radios, enabling easier upgrades and creating more room in space constrained panels. Pilot-selectable 25 kHz or 8.33 kHz channel spacing provides global capability. The radio features a sunlight-readable color LCD display, indicating the currently tuned active and standby frequencies, as well as their station ID – such as KOJC TWR or KSLE ATIS. The vibrant display as well as the dual concentric knob and backlit keys mimic those found on other modern Garmin avionics products, providing an intuitive user interface and simplifying product operation. Adding advanced communication capabilities to any panel, the GTR 205 is an optimized and cost-effective solution. The 2,280-channel capable VHF COMM radio comes standard with 10 watts of power. Additionally, pilots can monitor a standby COMM frequency while tuned to the active frequency, allowing them to perform various tasks such as listening to ATIS transmissions without leaving the active ATC frequency. The worldwide frequency database makes it convenient to find frequencies by searching an airport identifier. Frequency memory and instant recall make tuning to the most often or recently used frequencies quick and efficient, plus holding down the volume knob will quick-tune to the emergency channel 121.5. To assist with approaches, holds or other assigned maneuvers, the GTR 205 includes a built-in timer, with the option to count up or count down. |

Intercom Function
As of software update v2.22, the GTR 205 can serve as an all-in-one radio and stereo intercom. A two-place intercom and speaker output allows easy communication between the pilot and passenger. The GTR 205 also includesBluetooth® functionality for phone calls and media entertainment. Stream music from your personal electronic device via Bluetooth® and see the song and artist on the GTR 205 display. Music playback controls allow pilots to play,pause, skip or repeat tracks without needing to access their device. Pilots can receive incoming calls, view phone numbers, end calls, and see their connected device’s signal strength and battery life right on the GTR 205 display.
3D audio processing makes it seem like select audio sources are coming from a unique location or seat position. Active and standby frequencies are separated in the headset making it easier for the pilot to differentiate between sources. For easy intercom use, auto squelch will automatically sense noise level in the cockpit and adjust the microphone accordingly. Equalizer and Bass Boost settings on the radio also allow for an even more customized listening experience. The radios include up to four AUX inputs that can now be used for audio alerts and more, with two capable of optional stereo pairing.
