1219-A
The General Radio 1219-A Unit Pulse Amplifier was introduced in Catalog O (1956) and remained available through Catalog Q (1961).
A companion device for use with Types 1217-A and 1391-B pulse generators, Type 1219-A is designed to increase the power level but preserve pulse characteristics.
A front-panel switch matches the output of the amplifier to the load, with several common transmission line impedances being available. This switch is pulse polarity sensitive.
Although a unit instrument, the 1219-A it contains its own power supply.
