Abstract :
Herein is described a high-frequency radio amplifier recently developed for the transoceanic-telephone facilities of the Bell System at Lawrenceville, N.J. In general, the amplifier is capable of delivering 60 kilowatts of peak envelope power when excited from a 2-kilowatt radio-frequency source. It is designed to operate as a "class B" amplifier for transmitting either single-channel double-sideband or twin-channel single-sideband types of transmission. Features are described which permit rapid frequency-changing technique from any preassigned frequency to another lying. anywhere within the spectrum of 4.5 to 22 megacycles.
