1234
The General Radio 1234 Standing-Wave Meter was introduced in Catalog T (1968) and remained available through Catalog 1978.
The Type 1234 Standing-Wave Meter is a low noise three stage tuned amplifier operating at a frequency 1 kHz. Its designed to measure standing waves (maximums and minimums) when paired with a slotted line like 874-LB. Either a crystal rectifier or a bolometer can be used as a detector. The panel meter is equipped with lamps at the far end of each scale to indicate which is in use. There are also ac and dc outputs for use with a recorder.
