HP 8672A odd problem.


 

Synthesizer lock on all frequencies but has about a 10 KHz FM signal on
most frequencies. Using a scope on the output pins of the Phase detector
chip shows the expected pulses but about a ten KHz amplitude modulation on
the pins. Powwersupply looks clean. Chip jhas been replaced. Anyone seen
this before?

How about the PD's reference and VCO inputs? My bet's on the YIG or tuning
driver circuit, or one of the supplies associated with them.
