  • This impressive AM-CW signal generator covers from 16 kHz to 50 MHz in seven bands; a seventh band can accomodate a custom set of tuning coils, when required. Electrical specs are quite exceptional, with frequency accuracy better than 1 % and drift not greater than 0.02 % per hour during the first 2.5 hours. Two tuning knobs: the vernier dial allows frequency increments as low as 0.02 %. Two meters, for the modulation percentage and for the output voltage. Produced over a long time.
