Overview: The ARC 164 is an aircraft UHF-AM multichannel transceiver providing a frequency hopping or anti-jamming capability. The frequency-hopping scheme is implemented in the equipment by storing or initializing the radio with a Word of Day (WOD), Time of Day (TOD), and a Net Number. The WOD programs the frequency hopping rate and frequency hopping pattern. The radio cannot function in the anti-jamming mode without a valid WOD. Up to six WODs may be entered at one time giving the term MultiIPLE Word of Day (MWOD). The TOD provides the synchronization necessary for communicationg in the anti-jamming mode by allowing frequency hopping at the same instant in time.
