Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a rear 10 MHz reference input?
Yes. The rear panel carries BNC jacks marked 10 MHz REF INPUT and 10 MHz REF OUTPUT.
Will it run on a 120 V outlet?
Yes. It is rated 90-130V and 180-250V, 50-400Hz, 220VA, and the LINE SELECT switch sets 110 or 220. Use slow blow fuses only: 2A at 220V, 4A at 110V.
Has the full 10 MHz to 40 GHz range been checked on this unit?
No. It powers on without issue and basic checks found no problems with the buttons or display, but limited testing was performed for lack of the right test equipment. You get a synthesizer that powers up with a working keypad and display, and you take on verifying RF output across the band.
