The 1362 UHF Oscillator (Figure 1-1) is a gen- eral-purpose oscillator for the radio-frequency lab- oratory. Covering the calibrated range from 220 to 920 MHz, this oscillator provides adequate power to drive bridges, slotted lines, impedance comparators, and other measuring equipment. The output is brought through an attenuator, calibrated in relative power levels, making the oscillator suitable for the testing of receivers. Direct sine-wave, square-wave, or pulse amplitude modulation is possible. Amplitude modula- tion free from incidental fm can be obtained with an external diode modulator. Connected to a mixer, the oscillator can be used as thelocal oscillator in a het- erodyne receiver to convert the GR 1236 I-F Amplifier, or a low-frequency communications receiver, into a detector for uhf signals. Square-wave and pulse am- plitude modulation can be obtained with the GR Type 1264 Modulating Power Supply (Figure 1-2), or leveled output can be obtained with the GR p p e 1263 Ampli- tude-Regulating Power Supply. 1.2 DESCRIPTION. 1.2.1 GENERAL. The 1362 Oscillator uses a planar triode and is tuned by a butterfly resonator, to provide wide tuning range without switching or sliding contacts. For details refer to paragraph 5.2. The butterfly rotor is driven 85 through anti- backlash gears by the main dial, turning 330, and the vernier drive, whose 9 turns are each resolved into 100 arbitrary (logging) divisions. Frequency calibra- tion is accurate to +I%. Resolution of 0.1% or better with the logging scale is described in paragraph 3.2. Jacks are provided for modulation, connection of special-purpose power supplies, and the measurement of plate current. INTRODUCTION 1 Figure 1-2.

The output system is an adjustable coaxial line with a coupling loop on one end and a locking GR874 coaxial connector on the other. Coupling between the loop and the oscillator can be adjusted over a wide, continuous range, and the loop can be clamped in the desired position. With close coupling, maximum power can be delivered to load impedances normally encoun- tered in coaxial systems. Power available into a 50- ohm load is plotted against frequency in Figure 1-3 for a typical 1362 Oscillator. With loose coupling, the movable line becomes a piston attenuator, calibrated over a range of 80 dB (refer to paragraph 3.3). 1.2.3 FREQUENCY STABILITY. For most applications a well-regulated and fil- tered power supply should be used to avoid amplitude and frequency variations caused by line-voltage fluc- tuation and to produce a clear audible tone when the output beats with a stable reference. With an unreg- ulated power supply, a line-voltage variation of 10 percent causes an immediate (1 second) frequency change of about 0.002 percent at frequencies up to 500 MHz, and a change of about 0.02 percent at 900 MHz. If the line voltage is held steady for 5 minutes after the shift of 10 percent, the frequency change is about 0.02% up to 500 MHz and 0.04% at 900 MHz. Of the power supplies listed in paragraph 1.5, only the Type 1269 is unregulated. The Type 1267, for example, reduces the effect of line-voltage change by a factor of 100 or more. When the oscillator is turned on for use, a warmup frequency drift (0.2% typical total) will occur until the circuit stabilizes at the set frequency. Fig- ure 1-4 shows typical warmup frequency drift curves. Individual instruments may drift considerably more or less, or even in the opposite sense from the typical. 1.2.4 POWER REQUIREMENTS. The 1362 UHF Oscillator requires an external power supply. The choice among the four General Radio power supplies recommended in paragraph 1.5 should be based on the intended application of the oscil- lator. If a power supply other than one of those rec- ommended is used, it should be capable of delivering 300 to 330 volts, dc, at 35 mA for the plate, and 6.3 volts at 0.24 ampere for the heater. The negative side of the power supply must be floating, since the positive side is grounded inside the oscillator. 400 , 300 (C W a , 200 = I Figure 1-3.

Modulation at full-rated output power is obtained with the Type 1264 Modulating Power Supply. When operatedwith a Type 1263 Amplitude-Regulating Power Supply, the oscillator provides a levelled rf output of 20 milliwatts, peak, into a 50 ohm load, with 1-kHz square-wave modulation (or cw). 1.3.4 PULSE AMPLITUDE MODULATION. The rise time, starting delay, and jitter of the 1362 Oscillator depend on the frequency and load con- ditions. Typical values obtained with a Type 1217 Unit Pulse Generator used to drive the Type 1264 Modulat- ing Power Supply are shown in Figure 1-5. I 5 1 5 30 1 2 3 4, 1362.13 MINUTES HOURS Figure 1-4.

Recommended auxil- liary equipment is described in paragraph 1.5. 1.3.2 SINUSOIDAL AMPLITUDE MODULATION. A jack on the front panel of the oscillator permits plate modulation by connection of an audio oscillator, such as the Type 1311. This function is also supplied at another jack on the left-hand side plate. The mod- ulator must supply a dc path andmust be able to carry 30 milliamperes dc. A sine wave of 20-volts, rms, amplitude, will produce approximately 30% amplitude modulation. 1.4 SWEEP OPERATION. The 1362 Oscillator is well suited for swept operation due to the use of ball bearings in the tuning drive mechanism and to the absence of sliding contacts in the rf circuit. Asweep drive can be coupledeither to the slow- motion dial or to the main frequency dial of the oscil- lator. When the main frequency dial is driven directly, the sweep rate should be restricted to one excursion per second or less. The slow-motion dial can be driven at rates up to 5 cycles per second. The Type 1263 Amplitude-Regulating Power Supply will maintain a constant rf output amplitude as the oscillator is swept. When the oscillator is driven by a sweep or dial drive, all moving parts in the oscillator must be lub- ricated in accordancewith paragraph 6.8. For recom- mended dial drives, refer to paragraph 1.5. 1.5 AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT. The 1362 Oscillator can be used in conjunction with a variety of auxiliary General Radio equipment Figure 1-5.
