The applicable Standard Industrial Classification Code is 3663 and the applicable Federal Supply Classification Code is 5820. The Microwave Receiver shall provide a high performance, low cost set-on receiver with the capability to be used with the CLUSTER SNOOP and CLUSTER SPECTATOR Microwave Receiving Systems. The CLUSTER SNOOP (AN/USQ-149(V)2) system is the next-Generation ELINT Collection System (NDI) nearing production and fleet release. The system functions as a carry-on signal collection system utilizing state-of-the-art high-speed receivers and advanced technology pulse processors. The CLUSTER SPECTATOR (AN/WSQ-5(V)) system is the digitally-controlled radio frequency receiver system developed in 1989 capable of automatic search, acquisition, and identification of electronic emitters to provide tactical Electronic Support Measures (ESM) augmentation and the needs of Direct Support Element (DSE) electronic intelligence (ELINT) operations. The receivers shall be plug-compatible with the TN-340 microwave tuners used in the CLUSTER SNOOP systems and be capable of being fully integrated without hardware modifications to the systems. The receivers shall be fully compatible with the CLUSTER SPECTATOR TN-616 tuners after changing the CLUSTER SPECTATOR tuner control cable connector to the connector used for the TN-340 tuners. The Microwave Receivers shall be controllable from the front panel of the receiver or through a combination of parallel and serial control buses. All features shall be controllable by both front panel and remote control methods.
