RACAL MA.197 Pre-Selection and Protection Unit.

The purpose of this unit,manufactured during the 1960’s by the Racal company in England,and which uses vacuum tube circuitry, was to solve the ma197.jpg (32377 bytes)problem of successfully operating HF receivers in close proximity to high-power transmitters,not only to reduce break-through,but to prevent physical and electrical damage to the receivers.A further benefit which results from the insertion of the MA.197 between the antennae and the receiver input,is the resulting high degree of pre-selection.An unwanted signal 5% off-tune has an attenuation of 80dB in the range of 2-24Mc’s,and in that range the RACAL MA197 will protect receivers from burn out due to excessive input,since it will withstand without damage,r.f.,e.m.f’s,of up to 40 volts.The unit can be used with single receivers,but also in any installation where common aerial working systems are employed.The unit is designed for rack mounting into a standard 19" rack.Externally,with the exception of some minor corrosion of the chrome plating on the front panel handles,the unit is in good original condition.It is in very good original electrical condition and has not been modified in any way.Power requirements are 200-250 or 100-125 volts ac.The pre-selector protection unit is in working order and a copy of the manufacturers handbook and circuit diagrams is included.The price of the unit is $480 US Dollars,which includes the cost of air freight to the USA.
