{{Catalog History}}
}}
The {{Title|General Radio 1900-A Wave Analyzer}} was introduced in {{Catalog R}} and remained available through {{Catalog 1973}}.
 
The Type 1900-A Wave Analyzer is designed to measure and analyze electrical signals between 20 Hz and 54 KHz at bandwidths as narrow as 3 Hz.  When coupled with the recorder Type [[1521-B]] a permanent record of the spectrum of interest is produced. The 1900-A has a built in tracking generator whose frequency is synchronized with the analyzer frequency. This generator can be used as a source for bridges or networks, the output can be measured using its high selectivity to reduce noise and harmonics. Applications include analyzing filters and frequency response of amplifiers or networks.
The 1900-A is complex instrument but major components are housed in their respective shielded enclosures.  These subassemblies are connected using RCA and Jones type connectors simplifying service.  The 1900-A and the [[1521-B]] combination make up the Type [[1910-A]] Recording Wave Analyzer.
