frequency swing is proportionel to the output amplitude as read. 
on the 400 CD. The receiver is calibrated for this frequency 
deviation and the data is recoréed on the front panel. For 
instance, a deviation of 125 KC is proportional to an output of 
87 volts RMS on Clark receiver.

13218) FM TRANSMITTER 


This illustration describes 2 method for gaining more control over the tuning 
frequencics “é¥ gain characteristics of an RF amplifier, If the occasion 
arises that a transmitter’s maximum output ig low or below 1.7 watts, one of 
the methods of bringing it up is by spreading or compressing the cotls, This 
in effect changes the resonant “requency of the stage thereby increasing ov 
detreasing the gain, 


Ons of the indications when the transmitters! maximum output is lower than 
1.7 watts, is a tuning capacitor that is completely unmeshed (as pictured 

on illustration I) and therefore does not give complete control over the 

resonant frequency or gain of the unit. 


The remedy for this trouble is spreading the associated coil tums until c 


acitor is completely meshed, the remedy is to squeeze the turns on the assc 
ciated coil until the capacitor is about half meshed and Stage gain is maxi.
