CIRCUIT

DESCRIPTION

The

RF

oscillator

is

a

Colpitts

type

using

a

silicon

transistor.

The

RF

voltage

is

rectified

with

a

diode

and

the

current

is

indicated

on

the

meter.

When

the

dip

meter

frequency

is

in

resonance

with

the

external

circuit,

the

meter

pointer

will

dip.

The

strength

of

the

oscillator

output

is

controlled

2

with

the

SENSITIVITY

adjuster.

When

required,

amplitude

modulation

can

be

applied

to

the

RF

oscillator

output.

A

twin-

T

type

circuit

is

used

for

the

2kHz

source.

In

the

absorption

wavemeter

function,

the

RF

oscillator

Power

is

cut

off

and

the

tuned

and

diode-meter

circuits

are

used.

5.

PRECAUTIONS

IN

OPERATION

1.

During

standby

periods

or

when

the

dip

meter

is

not

in

use,

set

SENSITIVITY

adjuster

at

OFF

(clicked).

This

will

Prolong

battery

life.

Handle

the

coils

carefully

when

inserting

or

removing

same

from

the

socket.

During

measurements,

the

coil

should

be

loosely

coupled

to

the

test

circuit.

The

coupling

must

be

as

loose

as

possible

to

obtain

proper

meter

indication.

Close

coupling

will

in-

troduce

errors

in

measurement.

IMPORTANT!

When

checking

transmitting

equipment,

close

coupling

will

damage

the

diode

detector

by

overload.

Disconnect

the

battery

from

the

internal

circuit

when

the

dip

meter

is

not

in

use

for

long

periods.

portion

on

the

scale.

If

not,

renew

the

battery.

NOTE:

To

install

or

replace the

battery,

remove

the

covers

as

follows:

Remove

the

two

screws

each

at

the

right

and

left

sides

of

the

instrument;

take

off

the

covers.

Loosen

the

battery

clamp

screw

at

center

of

the

chassis

and

take

out

the

battery.

Remove

the

snap

terminals

from

the

battery.

To

install;

reverse

steps.

Tighten

the

clamp

screw

and

put

on

the

side

covers.

After

this

check,

set

Plug

the

coil

for

socket.

Set

FUNCTION

at

Advance

SENSITIVITY

past

the

click

point

so

that

the

meter

pointer

swings

to

about

0.8.

NOTE:

When

the

“F”

coil

is

used,

there

will

be

some

variation

in

the

meter

deflection

as

the

frequency

dial

is

rotated.

This

effect

will

be

present

when

the

coil

is

not

coupled

to

the

test

circuit.

Care

must

be

taken

during

use

not

to

confuse

this

condition

with

the

actual

dip

caused

by

the

test

circuit.

Couple

the

coil

loosely

to

the

test

circuit

and

rotate

the

frequency

dial

in

small

steps

until

a

dip

is

observed

on

the

meter.

(When

there

are

two

dips

close

together,

place

the

coil

farther

from

the

test

circuit.)

Adjust

the

frequency

dial

until

the

maximum

dip

is

obtained.

Note

the

frequency

on

the

frequency

dial.

Set

SENSITIVITY

at

OFF

after

the

tests.

NOTE:

It

is

important

that

Receiver

Testing

In

this

application,

the

dip

meter

is

used

as

a

simple

test

oscillator,

with

or

without

amplitude

modulation.

The

test

frequency

is

set

with

the

suitable

coil

and

frequency

dial.

The

dip

meter

is

placed

near

the

receiver;

the

“input

signal

strength”

can

be

varied

with

the

distance

between

the

dip

meter

and

the

receiver.

For

operation,

set

SENSITIVITY

for

RF

output.

Communications

receivers

with

best

oscillators

can

be

tested

by

setting

FUNCTION

at

OSC

for

the

CW

signal.

When

an

AM

signal

is

required,

set

FUNCTION

at

MOD.

A

tone

of

approximately

2kHz

will

be

heard

in

the

loudspeaker.

Adjustments,

as

required,

can

be

made,

with

the

respective

signals,

in

the

receiver

circuits,
