RA1778 Tricks of the Trade


 

RA1778 Tricks of the Trade -
?
VMARS AM net resolved as SSB -
using AFC carrier phase lock, full carrier AGC and selectable USB/LSB side band -
eliminating co-channel QRM.
?
Not quite its intended use, but handy as the Vintage net's 'drift the night away'

Unfortunately my 1779 wasn't fitted with the AFC lock option, however I often use SSB on the appropriate sideband to listen to difficult AM stations such as Radio Pyongyang (for a bit of amusement!).
?
The 5Khz sideband filters make this particularly good, and often one sideband is unintelligible while the the other is perfectly clear.

It was a option fit on the 1771 and 1772 as well..that fit was analog...fun to set up too ....
