 SPECIFICATIONS

SIP358C FM Stereo Multiplex Transmitter

The course provides a low power FM Stereo Multiplex Transmitter, capable of transmitting dual tones at 107 MHz from built-in generators. The Transmitter can be modulated by external stereo signals and can be used in conjunction with an FM Stereo Radio. It serves as either an FM Stereo Transmitter or an FM Stereo Sweep Generator. The course provides for approximately 40 hours of instruction.
