  • Notes
  • Redifon 605A Wavemeter

    The Rediffusion 605A Wavemeter has been constructed to have a discrimination of 0.1 percent over a range of frequencies from 100 to 43,000 kilocycles (3,000 to 7 meters). This range is covered by using 8 coils, which are carried in a separate case and are used in conjunction with a graph card made out for each individual coil. Tuning is by means of a variable condenser.
    The wavemeter unit is light and compact, weighing only 7½ pounds, and is 5 x 8" x 8".
    The construction throughout has been designed to resist severe variations of climate in most parts of the world.
    The eight coils are carried in a case of similar size, weighing 4 pounds. In use, the coils are attached to two terminals placed on the side of the wavemeter.

    Coil box 5" x 8" x 8".
