Notes | John F.Rider designed this all purpose instrument for systematic diagnosis in radio repair. It has 5 indicators: besides a DC voltmeter it uses four magic eyes for the "channels" RF/IF, AF, Watts, and Oscillator. Two separate tunable sections for RF/IF and Oscillator tests.
The RF/IF channel covers 3 bands: 95 - 260 kc; 240 - 630 kc; 600 - 1700 kc. The Oscillator channel has a tuned amplifier covering 3 bands: 600 - 1700 kc; 1650 - 4950 kc; 4800 - 15000 kc. Coverage of Oscillator operation extends up to 70 megacycles. The name is combined from "channel" and "analyst" = "Chanalyst". The tube complement is somewhat different from the initial publication, where 4 x 6K7 were foreseen. They remained in the RF/IF section, while the other two 6K7 were replaced by an 1852 and a 6SK7 respectively. Power requirements: Model 162 is 105-125 Volts, 50-60 Hertz, 60 Watts; Model 162A is 105-125 Volts, 25-50 Hertz, 60 Watts. You can find a Chanalyst model comparison here. |
