    whole rack system consists of
    RA-180 RF and Mixer unit: preselector and front end protection
    MA-250 Decade Generator: receiving frequency synthesizer
    MA-275 Oscillator Coupling Unit: couples MA-250 to RA-180 mixer
    MA-219 IF unit: filters IF coming from RA-180 mixer, provides USB/LSB with 3 kHz, DSB 7 kHz and CW 350 Hz bandwidths
    MA-229 IF unit: filters IF coming from RA-180 mixer and provides 6 kHz bandwidth in ISB mode
    MA-185 Demodulator unit: demodulates IF signals from different sources, provides three independant demodulators
    LA-196 Receiver Control Converter: handles signals from remote control terminal
    PU-225 Servo Control Power Unit: power supply for motors and relays of remote control system
    PU-238 24V DC Power Unit: provides +/- 12 V power supply for remote control system.
