Remote Automatic Multipurpose Station

Abstract

The RAMS field test system consisted of the following: an FSK, SSB modulator capable of operation in the three selected bands of 4 to 5 MHz, 6 to 7 MHz and 8 to 9 MHz; a broadband 100 watt, solid state power amplifier; an antenna coupling network; a DDRR antenna; an Accutron timer; and a propane powered motor generator. The thermoelectric (TE) cell power source was also installed at the field test site. The initial tests were encouraging and the RAMS signal was received at T3 approximately 1100 nautical miles away.
