C-BAND AND X-BAND DUAL FUNCTION OSCILLATORS.
Abstract
Tube design efforts continued in the areas of grid structures and the bonded heater-cathode structure. The first grid structure to provide a spectrum with no appreciable FM content was used with the radiation-type heater-cathode structure. Tubes were fabricated incorporating this grid structure, plus minor variations, with the bonded heater-cathode structure. Because of excess power in the local oscillator function, and mechanical problems, oscillator DC-4 was discontinued in favor of oscillator No. EL-PO (X-1), to which the following modifications were made: Installation of an effective rf choke in the grid circuit; addition of a 1/8 in. tuning shaft; redesign of the feedback circuit; increased length of the oscillator body; and redesign of the heater connections.
