VHF-21A
Image shown is VHF-22A due to similarities in appearance between units.
FEATURES
- Proline II remote-mounted, multichannel VHF voice transceiver providing AM voice communications in the frequency range from 118.000-135.975 (for -001,-002 units) and up to 136.975 (for -011,-012 units)
- Intended as direct replacement for VHF-20 and VHF-20A units
- Can be used with Proline II CTL-22 control
- Accept either 2-out-of-5 parallel or RS-422A serial digital tuning data from frequency control unit
- Models available with 720 channels or 760 channels (see table below)
- Models available with narrow bandwidth intended for operation in areas using 25-kHz channel spacing with or without offset carriers
- Models available with wide bandwidth that will operate satisfactorily in areas where the received carrier frequency varies as much as 13 kHz from nominal (see table below)
- Service bulletins available to modify 720 channel units to 760 channel units

What is meant by 50 kHz (i.e. narrow vs. wide) receiver selectivity?
This does not pertain to the comm selector channel spacing.
With the evolution and growth of airborne travel and the necessity for more usable frequencies in the VHF communications spectrum, the "channel" spacing became smaller. To avoid interference between channels the bandwidth of the RF stages was decreased from 50khz to 25khz. In doing so, another problem was introduced. If the ground transmitter or the air to air transmitter was not capable of tighter frequency tolerances, it was possible the 25khz RF selectivity would not allow the receive signal to pass and the aircraft crew could miss critical voice communications.
Due to the presence of older, outdated equipment in some countries, some manufacturers (namely Bendix/King and Collins) produced VHF comm radios with the 50khz receiver selectivity. With the recent mandates and technological advancements in Europe and South America, the requirements for the 50khz versions has diminished. If an operator were to use a 50khz version radio in the position of a 25khz, they would potentially have channel crossover and or an increase in background noise.
