3. Overall amplitude versus frequency response -visual transmitter

A. Test Equipment - The equipment was set up as shown and identified in

Figure #1.

B. Test Procedure

The visual transmitter was adjusted for CW operation at midcharacteristic

(43% of sync peak level.) It was then modulated by a signal from a type

H.P. 65aa Serial # PP215 Generator. The modulation was set

so that the excursions were approximately 70% (max.) of the reference

white to reference black region. A selective receiver

model BW7A serial # 550992

RCA

was used to select and

measure the signal level of each of the sidebands of the modulating frequency.

500 KHZ upper sideband was chosen as reference level since it

was the lowest modulating frequency that could be accurately separated from

the carrier. Measurements were made at the modulation frequencies

tabulated on page 6, and results plotted on the graph on page 7.

o Linearity Check -Differential Gain -Differential Phase

A. 'Output linearity of the transmitter was checked by modulating it with a

composite signal consisting of a stair step signal with 20% peak -to peak

3.58 MHZ superimposed on the steps (minimum of eight steps). This test

signal supplied by a Telechrcme type 1003C serial

stair step generator at rated sync and rated output power. The depth of

modulation was set to l22% of sync peak as observed on a vestigial sideband

demodulator. A photograph of this measurement as viewed on an oscilloscope

with a high pass filter inserted in the system is shown below. The test

equipment is as shown on Page 3. Readings of the relative gain of the system

are tabulated together with the phase measurements ,Page .:9: (Differential gain

and phase were measured using a high voltage linear diode).

.8. Audio Frequency Response -Aural Transmitter

Test set up for measuring the overall audio frequency response is shown

in Figure 2, Page 18. The aural transmitter was modulated while operating

at rated power, to 25 %, 50 %, 100% modulation as indicated by the station

modulation monitor. A modulating tone was supplied by an audio oscillator

HP 'type 206 serial # 766 at the frequencies tabulated

below, with'.the modulation percentage held constant at 1O00 cycles

was used as a reference level and the increases or decreases in level

required to maintain the percentage modulation constant was converted to db

and tabulated. The signal was introduced at the main studio microphone

terminal and passed through the audio system to the aural transmitter.

,Limiter actions in the limiting amplifiers were disabled Tor.these tests.

Curves of these results are shown on Pages 15, 16, and 17.

10. Aural FM Noise Measurement

FM noise level was measured using the test set up shown in Fig. 2. A

1400 cps signal was fed in the system at main microphone input. This

was used to establish 0 db reference at 100% modulation. The signal was

removed from the aural transmitter and the transmitter input shunted by

its rated input impedance.

Residual FM noise level is 56 db below 100% modulation with 400 cps. 11. Aural AM Noise Measurements

AM noise was measured using a diode detector in the aural RF transmission

line. The RF probe was inserted in the output transmission line to give

a 4.0 VDC signal. With a noise and distortion analyzer

connected to the diode, the residual noise voltage read .005 volts (RMS).

Signal to noise ratio was 20 log10 .707 (DC Voltmeter) 55.0 db (N&D Analyzer Reading)

13. Measurements of Spurious and RF Harmonic Measurements

RF harmonic level for the aural and visual transmitting systems were

made using the equipment set up shown in Figure #3. The aural transmitter

was operated at rated power and the visual at rated black level power. A

directional probe was inserted in the transmission line, beyond the

harmonic filter and the GR unit oscillator tuned to a frequency of

carrier frequency +30 MHZ. The probe depth was then adjusted to give a

convenient reference level and locked in that position. Fundamental

rejection filters were then inserted as shown in Figure #3 and tuned for

maximum fundamental rejection. The oscillator was then tuned to each

harmonic frequency +30 MHZ and harmonic level read in db below carrier

reference. Corrections for directional probe and fundamental filters

were made and the results of measurements on the aural and visual RF

harmonics were then tabulated below.

Frequency Measurement made on December 1, 1966, 2:10 am

Equipment: Motorola T1020A Frequency Meter (Gertsch) Serial #860 Factory Calibrated March 18, 1966

Method: The T1020A Frequency Meter was allowed a 30 minute warm up period. Internal oscill- ator was calibrated in the normal manner.

A zero beat was obtained on the T1020A against the Visual Carrier and computed to be 181.24015 mc. The station frequency monitor indicated a minus ( -) 100 cps.

Internal calibration precedure was repeated for the Aural Frequency. With no modulation a beat was obtained against the Aural Carrier on the T1020A and the frequency was computed to be 185.74000 mc. The station frequency monitor indicated a minus ( -) 150 cps.
