The MDC-5
ISA’s Microwave Range Extender for the ECR-3
The Microwave Down Converter generation 5, codename MDC-5, is the most cost effective way to extend the frequency range of ISA’s ECR-3 Countermeasures Receivers. The MDC-5 converts signals transmitting between 1 GHz and 3GHz down to 0-1000 MHz. This allows the ECR-3 to detect and present the signal on its CRT. The MDC-5 is very sensitive (-100 dBm). It will detect low powered, directional transmitters, even at great distances! Detected demodulated audio and video, depending on the receiver, can easily be evaluated to discern if it’s a threat or a benign transmission.
