C a lib ra tio n — Type 1L30
RF AMD
LOCAL OSCILLATOR
CALIBRATION
The
following procedure is
N O T
a part of
the
routine
: v ibration.
It provides
a
c a lib ra tio n procedure for the
r.F section, when
adequate
equipm ent
and
q u alified
per
sonnel are
available.
(Personnel must be experienced in
high frequency
calibration technique.) If practical, Tektronix
recommends
that the RF assembly or the Plug-In Unit be
returned
to Tektronix for repair. See your local Tektronix
Field Office or representative.
The following additional equipment or its equivalent is
required to calibrate the RF section. See Fig. 6-30.
' i. Sampling Oscilloscope with Plug-In Units. Frequency,
DC to 3900 M Hz, Dual-Trace display, sensitivity 2 mV/cm.
Tektronix Type 661/4S2A/5T3.
2. Frequency Meter or Counter.
Frequency Range 500
MHz to 9C0M Hz, accuracy .001%. PRD Type 504, Hetero-
oyne Frequency Meter.
3. Two (2) 1 0 X Attenuators.
Tektronix Part No. 017-
CG44-00.
4.
Two (2) 50 <2 5 ns coaxial cables. Tektronix Part No.
017-0502-00.
5. Two (2) Adapters, Sealectro slide on plug to GR 874
connector. (General Radio Part No. 52-073-6400-813.)
Preliminary
Procedure After Replacing the
Oscillator Tube
1.
Assemble the oscilloscope with the dial tape assembly,
install
a knob on the tuning shaft. Loosen the Allen set
screws
on
the
Varactor adjustment, the pickoff probe and
the
inner and outer choke plunger. See Fig. 6-31.
2. Set the Varactor adjustment two full turns back from
maximum pentration and the pickoff probe approximately
’A
inch back from maximum
penetration.
Tighten set screws
just enough
to hold the
adjustments
in place.
3. Set the tuning to the highest frequency position (clock
wise to the mechancial stop). Push the inner choke in until
it bottoms against the tube; do not exert any excess pres
sure that might break the tube. Pull the inner choke out
slightly and tighten the choke set screws. The tuning mechan
ism should stop the choke just short of touching the tube.
Push the outer choke to its high frequency end.
4. Connect the voltage leads (filament, B + and Varactor)
to the oscillator assembly. Replace the back panel of the
Type 1L30 and install 2 to 3 screws to hold the panel in
place. (This reduces the possibility of short circuits.) Fig.
6-32 illustrates the postion of the RF oscillator for calibra
tion adjustments.
5. Connect the oscillator output (both coaxial connectors)
through a Sealectro to GR adapter, a 50 Q, 5 ns cable and
a 1 0 X attenuator to both inputs of the Sampling Unit
(4S2A). Set the sweep to free run. Turn the power switch to
O N , and allow a 30 minute warm-up period for the oscillator
to stabilize.
6. W ith the oscillator tuned to the high frequency end,
adjust the plate (outer) choke position for maximum oscilla
tion amplitude, as indicated on the sampling oscilloscope
system. Tighten the plate choke set screws.
NO TE
If these screws are overtightened, they w ill w a rp
the plastic rods and may cause the tuning o p e ra
tion to bind.
