I'm clutching a few straws here, but as T&F enthusiasts you might see a
connection to what I'm after. I am looking for any information (manual
or whatever) for a 1980s vintage Redifon exciter, the DU505M Synthesized
Driver Unit. I can send a photo if it might help.
Some hint as to where to look for this information would be most
helpful. Do you know any Redifon collectors or archives?
I am keen to use this nice unit as a source for precision propagation
experiments, and as a 30m beacon. It is single reference synthesized and
runs all sorts of modes (including ISB!) I plan to use it in conjunction
with a GPS disciplined reference. Output is about 50mW, or just under
1mW/kg!
Hi Murray
Information on the DU5xx series seems quite hard to come by.
I've got manuals for the earlier GK203N and SD1 drive units but also have a
DU500 that needs some TLC and I've found nothing for that.
I don't know how close the DU505 is to the DU500 but if you find anything
I'd certainly be interested in taking a look.
