Radio apparatus and in particular VHF transmitter and receiver apparatus for aeronautical use comprises a frequency synthesizer 17 which is able to generate any desired frequency within the range of the radio and a number of frequency channel selection devices. These selection devices include a channel tuning switch 11, 11' which is arranged on the front panel of the apparatus and which can be adjusted to select any desired channel within the frequency range of the radio and a number of channel selectors 12, 12'; 13, 13'; 14, 14' which can be preset to call up certain fixed channels as desired. A changeover switch 16a at the front panel of the apparatus makes it possible to select any one of the channel selectors 12, 12'; 13, 13'; 14, 14' or the channel tuning switch 11, 11'. All the channel tuning devices are of similar construction and are mechanical stepping switches but the adjustment devices for the fixed channel selectors can only be actuated by means of tools. The selected channel is indicated on a liquid crystal display 18. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
Radio apparatus, in particular VHF transmitter and receiver apparatus for aeronautical radio, the apparatus comprising a housing having a front side and adapted to be received in a mounting, a frequency synthesizer, a channel tuning switch arranged at said front side of the housing for selecting any desired channel in a predetermined frequency range, at least one channel selector for tuning in a fixed channel, adjustment means in respect of said at least one channel selector, a changeover switch for effecting changeover between the channel tuning switch and said at least one channel selector and a liquid crystal display adapted to indicate the channel selected and wherein said channel tuning switch and said at least one channel selector are similar mechanical stepping switches, said adjustment means for said at least one channel selector only being actuated by means of tools, said adjustment means further being only accessible when the housing is withdrawn from said mounting and wherein said change-over switch connects either said channel tuning switch or said at least one channel selector to the frequency synthesizer and to said liquid crystal display.
2.
Radio apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the stepping switches are rotatable binary coding switches.
3.
Radio apparatus according to claim 1, wherein means are provided for sealing said at least one channel selector.
4.
Radio apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the channel tuning switch and said at least one channel selector each consist of two interconnected stepping switches of which the one serves for MHz tuning and the other for KHz tuning.
5.
Radio apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said at least one channel selector is arranged near to one of the housing sides.
6.
Radio apparatus according to claim 1, wherein a plurality of channel selectors is provided and wherein said changeover switch is a rotatable switch having several positions and rotatable from a first position corresponding to said channel tuning switch to further positions each corresponding to a respective one of said plurality of channel selectors
