Technical Information on
Advanced Electronic Applications, Inc. (AEA) Products Compiled by Mike Morris WA6ILQ |
The AEA Company that was involved in the amateur radio world ceased operation in 1996, and their office at 2006 196th Street SW, Lynwood, Washington 98036 was closed. They sold the data products line to Timewave Technology of Saint Paul, Minnesota, and the antenna products line to Tempo Research of Vista, California (just north of San Diego).
Historically, “AEA Wireless” was purchased by Tempo in 1995 and sold again in 2000. George Naber, the former VP of Operations at Tempo, bailed it out of near bankruptcy in 2001. He restructured Production to be profitable, brought on a new Chief Engineer and redirected the company toward the commercial market. On May 5, 2004, he renamed the company AEA Technology, Inc. He is still their President and CEO. AEA continues to make several models of test equipment designed and priced for the amateur market, but all their newer products are now focused on the CATV, Telco, Broadcast, Land and Marine Mobile, Medical, RFID, and military markets. AEA maintains a loyal following of amateur users who have been using their antenna analyzers for years and trade them up whenever possible.
There is a different AEA (based in Pasadena, California) that makes some of the world's finest recording studio microphones and does forensic audio recovery. If you are looking for Audio Engineering Associates, "The Ribbon Microphone People", "The Forensic Audio People", or Wes Dooley click here.

AEA Data products (Multimode data controllers, TNCs) In mid-1997 Timewave Technology bought the data side of AEA, and they can repair many AEA data products. Their ability to repair these products is limited by parts availability and special test equipment to test the products. Timewave has a limited supply of AEA custom parts that will be used until the supply is exhausted.

Does anyone have any useful modifications or other articles on AEA gear? We're offering this space to host any mods that have proven useful and any articles of interest that you may have stashed on your local hard drives. A walkthrough of how to use the Antenna Analyzer would be of special interest.
