On
offer is what appears to be a home constructed wide range oscillator that probably dates from
the 1960s / 1970s.
The
front panel measures about 6.50 inches x 6.50 inches x
4.00 inches deep [including the control knobs and terminals]. There is a
five range multiplier switch; x1, x10, x100, x1k, x10k and a variable control
with and engraved dial covering 15 - 200 which can be seen on the photographs
of the front of the wide range oscillator.
This
was amongst the contents of the workshop of an engineer and 'silent key' radio
amateur, who had been involved in many aspects of amateur, military and
professional wireless over many years. I do not have the time or facilities to
test it, so it is being offered as 'sold as seen’ with the eBay listing as 'For
parts or not working', without guarantee or returns, in order to comply
with eBay’s terms and conditions.
Buyers
please note that there is no case or power supply included in the offer.
In
the event of the substitution box not working, it should be easily repaired, as
these are constructed using all discrete components. It could also be used as a
donor for a faulty or damaged similar instrument or re-purposed for another
project.
This
wide range oscillator will appeal to engineers, home constructors, experimenters
and collectors of vintage test equipment, and would enhance the benches of
period style or modern workshop settings.
It
looks very clean, and the condition and description can better be judged from
the photographs, which are of the actual wide range oscillator on offer for
sale.
This
has been priced to sell, without reserve.
Please
see the other items which I have on offer for sale.
