Description
The UHF transmitter is used to investigate the propagation of
electromagnetic waves in free space (e.g. in the air), in dielec-
tric media (e.g. in water) and on Lecher lines. It can be used in
continuous wave mode or with a modulating signal; the modu-
lating signal can be an audio signal, a video signal (with some
restrictions) or a TTL data signal.
The pluggable loop dipole functions as a transmitter antenna;
the enclosed antenna rod acts as a director when placed in
front of the receiver antenna, and as a reflector when placed
behind it.
Two receiver antennas can be used. The receiver dipole with
lamp indicates the field strength of the received signal as a
function of the antenna distance and polarization in a qualita-
tive manner through the change in lamp brightness. The re-
ceiver antenna with diode demodulates the high-frequency
received signal and can be connected to a multimeter for
quantitative display of the field strength or to an audio-
frequency amplifier to generate an audio or video signal.
