  • Notes

  • The RCA Victor 40-C Program Amplifier was designed primarily to feed from a microphone or pre-amplifier into a telephone line; or from a telephone line into a remotely located transmitter.  In those instances it functions strickly as a line amplifier.  At remotely located transmitters the 40-C is especially useful.  Since it will furnish carbon microphone current, local announcements can be made by the operator.  It may also be used as an audition amplifier to drive a loudspeaker from the output of the microphone amplifier, providing that not too high signal level is required from the speaker.  *

    The loudspeaker configuration requires an RCA Victor Monitor Amplifier AA4194B and a loudspeaker.

    It is from the RCA Deluxe Line for professional broadcast purpose.
