The General Radio 1000-P6 Crystal Diode Modulator was introduced in 1951 Catalog M and remained available through Catalog R 1963.
The Type 1000-P6 is an AM modulator accessory for oscillator frequencies between 20 and 1000 MHz. It uses a 1N21B microwave diode modulator which can be biased up to 4 V maximum, a 1.5 V battery or 0 to 4 V power supply is recommended. The modulated oscillator output must be kept below 50 mV to avoid damaging the diode. The 1000-P6 is useful for wide-band modulation where incidental FM must be negligible.
Specifications
- Carrier Frequency Range: 20-1000 MHz
- Modulating Frequency Range: 0-5 MHZ
- Impedance: Unit designed for use with a 50 Ω source and 50 Ω load. Impedance at modulation terminals approximately 600 Ω
