New Test Gear 6-20-14: Just added the Rigol DS-1022 Abritrary Waveform and Function Generator. This is a dual channel DDS generator that will allow me to perform certain KW hybrid tests and alignments easier and faster to a high quality standard. Those tests include the following: 1. Transmitter 2-tone testing 2. Carrier Set Point adjustment (SSB frequency response) 3. Speech processor and ALC indication calibration 4. Band Pass Filter (BP)F) sweeping and adjustment It also has a Pulse mode which will allow me to better align the Noise Blanker. I can now retire the "hair dryer", the "blender", and the GM HEI ignition driven "Jacobs Ladder" that were previously employed to produce ignition like noise! |
