- Notes
-
The Meissner model 9-1090 is a VFO (variable frequency oscillator) with an RF amplifier that was typically used as an exciter for a larger transmitter. RF output is "in excess of 6 watts". Output is link coupled. The coils for the six ranges (amateur bands of 10, 11, 15, 20, 40, and 80 meters) are turret mounted with a six-position selector. An eye tube serves as a tuning and keying indicator. Crystal control is an option. The tuning control is graduated from 0 to 500 and is designed to overlap the bands by 2% on either side.
The tube count in the advertisements is 6 which includes one voltage regulator, VR105 for oscillator screen stability, not normally counted in RMorg.
The unit was available as a 9-1090G (gray) or as 9-1090B (black).
