In addition to radios already synopsized in the CBD, the Ericsson MRK UHF radio has been chosen, after careful consideration of available radios in the marketplace, because of its expected capability to meet certain MOUT-unique performance requirements. A quantity of 16 units will be procured. Under this program radios will be looked at again in the 6th Army Experiment planned for May of next year. In order to be considered for the 6th Army product qualification evaluations and subsequent Experiment, please send a list of all radios and necessary accessories that meet the MOUT ACTD requirements and any technical information including performance test reports to: CECOM RDED, Attn: AMSEL-RD-ST-WL-WI (Bing Mak), Ft. Monmouth, NJ, 07703-5000. This announcement constitutes the final announcement that will be made for these radio types. Should any companies submit information on another radio that warrants consideration, the Army intends to procure test quantities of those items. Please send information no later than 15 October 1998. Mr. Bing Mak can be reached at (732) 532-0456.
