Chapter   1 Introduction 

 

 
The  240L  is  a  broadband  solid  state amplifier  covering  the frequency  spectrum from  10 
KHz to 12 MHz. It is rated at 40 watts of RF power with low harmonic and intermodulation 
distortion. Over 100 watts of saturated power can be produced with increased distortion 
products.  A  highly  linear  Class  A  design,  the  240L  will  amplify  inputs  of  AM,  FM,  SSB, 
pulse  and  any  complex  modulation  signals.  The  amplifier  has  50  dB  gain  it  is 
unconditionally stable and will not oscillate even with combinations of mismatched source 
and  load  impedance.  It  is  protected  against  failure  due  to  output  load  mismatch  and/or 
overdrive. 
 
RMS forward and reverse powers are monitored by a front panel meter. An integral power 
supply permits operation from 115/230 single phase AC power. 
 

1.2     INSTRUMENTATION IDENTIFICATION 

 
Each amplifier is identified by a serial number tag on the back panel of the unit. Both the 
model number and the serial number should be quoted to identify specific unit.  
 

1.3      SPECIFICATIONS 

 
Physical and electrical specifications are listed in Table 1-1 below
