Special Model DP Direction Finder Equipment Incorporating a Balance Amplifier

Abstract

The object of the test was to determine, first, whether the maximum phase shift introduced by the balance amplifier circuit is of sufficient magnitude to introduce inherent deviating influences or otherwise mitigate against satisfactory operation of such a device; second, whether the additional noise level introduced by the balance amplifier seriously compromises the satisfactory operation of the equipment; third, to determine by comparison methods, any advantages or disadvantages inherent in the subject equipment over those of a standard model DP-9 direction finder; fourth, to recommend any changes or modifications that may be ascertained as being desirable.
