• Model: RX Meter 250-A - Boonton Radio Corp.; Boonton,

• Shape
• Boatanchor (heavy military or commercial set >20 kg).

• Dimensions (WHD)
• 20 x 10 x 12 inch / 508 x 254 x 305 mm

• Notes
• RF bridge; internal generator covering from 500KHz to 250MHz in six bands. Schering bridge, to measure resistance, capacitance and inductance.
  The RX MeterType 250-A is a wide frequency range Impedance Meter designed to permit accurate individual determination of the equivalent parallel resistance and parallel reactance of two-terminal networks and components. The instrument is completely self-contained and consists fundamentally, of a refined Schering bridge circuit, together with its associated oscillator, detector, amplifier, null detector and power supply. Bridge balance is obtained by means of two calibrated dials which indicate, respectively, parallel resistance and parallel capacitance of the unknown.
