Ham SSB Transceiver
SWAN mod. 350 c (U.S.A. 1973). The RTX provides AM-SSB-CW
coverage of all Ham frequencies from 80 to 15 meter bands, and
one 500 kHz portion of 10 meter band. RF power input is 400 watts
PEP minimum on all the bands in SSB, 320 watts input on all
the bands in CW and 135 watts input on all the bands in AM
mode. The receiver sensitivity is better than 0,5 microvolt. Audio
autput 3 watts on 3,2 ohm load. Vacuum tube utilized: V1: 6EW6,
V2: 12BE6, V3: 6GK6, V4: 6JE6, V5: 6JE6, V6: 12BZ6, V7: 12BE6, V8: 6EW6,
