(SeeFig. 4)

The full ronge ond occurocy of the VHF omnironge system con only be reolized when the oirplone is equipped with the proper type of ontenno.
A horizontol V-type is obsolutely necessory; o verticol whip is definitely not sotisfoctory, olthough it
moy oppeor to be when tried. Verticolly polorized
components ore not rodioted by the ground stotions,
but ore produced by reflections. Therefore o verticol ontenno moy receive strong signols, but not
directly from the ground stotion, giving rise to
very unrelioble beorings.
The locotion of the ontenno is likewise of porom o u n t i m p o r t o n c e . l t i s o d v i s o b l et o p l o c e i t o n t h e

owoy from the engine(s) ond propellor(s). Other
ontennos ond wires locoted within two feet of the
omni ontenno moy couse weok reception from sorne
directions, ond should be ovoided

Some very successful instollotions hove olso been

mode plocing the ontenno on the lower surfoce of
the fusiloge, ond olso on the top of the verticol
stobilizer. The nose of the V should foce directly
forword or reorword, ond the rods should be horizontol in level-flight ottitude.

The cooxiol feed coble hos its sheoth connected ro

the metol skin or frome of the oircroft ot o point
opposite the connection to the wire.' The center
conductor is usuolly connected to o feed-thru insulotor, which in turn is connected to the ontenno
wire.

The ontenno most contoins o motching bolun which

must be instolled between the ontenno rods ond

It is well to locote the morker beocon ontenno os

F.I

The VHF tronsmitting ontenno should be mounted

on q metol plote meosuring ot leost 18 inches
sguore for best results. Such o mounting plote is
often found directly in front of the windshield in
fobric-covered ships, ond ot the center of the cobin
roof in metol ships. Where no such surfoce is ovoiloble, o piece of thin oluminum moy sometimes be
offixed flush with the fobric. This thin oluminum
sheet or foil moy be mode to conform to the vorious curved surfoces to which it is mounted, but oll
cuts ond seoms should be olong lines rodioting
from the center point. A 7/16 inih hole should be
in the center of this sheet for mounting the ontenno. lt is recommended thot where necessory o
metol supporting plote be provided for the ontenno
to resist the bending lood imposed by the slipstreom. Do not lengthen or shorten the ontenno.
It hos been cut the proper length for the most efficient rodiotion ot the frequencies generoted by this
tronsmitter. Do not ottoch other wires or devices
to it, ond locote it ot leost 12 inches from the
neorest projecting object or other wire. The method
of ottoching the tronsmission line to the ontenno
is illustroted in Fig. 3 ond should be rigidly folIowed. txcess tronsmission line con be neotly coiled
ot ony convenient point provided thot ot leost o
six-inch rodius is used in coiling. All bends in the
tronsmission line should be smooth ond groduol, to
prevent possible trouble loter on.

E. MAR,KERBEACONANTENNA
(SeeFig. 5)
The morker beoconontenno,which is not furnished
with the eguipment, should be fobricoted from
suitoble ontenno wire. lt should be locoted under
the fusiloge ond spoced obout six inches owoy
from it by o poir of suitoble support mostS.Noti
that the point where the leod-in is connected is
five inches disploced from the center of the ontenno wire. This dimension is importont for proper
motching.
A shorter (quorter wove) bent-rod, shunt-fed ontenno mounted on the under surfoce of the oirplone hos been found to be sotisfoctory if the feed
point is corefully odiusted for best reception.

The modulotion tronsformer olso contoins output

windings designed to motch o 150 to 600-ohm
heodset lood, o 3-ohm speoker voice coil. Simultoneous operotion of speoker ond heodset is possible, but ot somewhot reduced output. Reloy
contocts ore orronged to remove the tronsmitter
lood when receiving, ond to remove the loudspeoker
ond reduce the heodset lood when tronsmitting.

A seporote locol oscillotor is used ond injected into

the converter grid circuit. Temperoture compensotion is used to stobilize the oscillotor frequency.
The tuning system is o four-gong permeobility

The l.F. omplifier is peoked ot 10.7 megocycles.
A high-level diode detector is used to insure odequote lineority for use with the VHF omni-ronge
system. The omni-ronge output signol is token
directly from the detector diode lood.

C. VHF TRANSMITTER
(SeeFig. 16)
The VHF tronsmitter employs three tubes. V-301
is used os o third overtone crystol oscillotor on

circuit of V-301 is brood-bond coupled to the grid
of V-302 possing oll frequencies from 59 to 61.5
mc. Low bond (or 60.7 to 63.5 mc., high bond).

An extremely flot AVC is obtoined by using o sepo r o t e , h i g h l y d e l o y - b i o s e dA V C d i o d e i n c o n j u n c tion with the proper type of controlled omplifier
tubes. The AVC voltoge is opplied to the grid of
the R.F. stoge ond the first two l.F. stoges. No
AVC is opplied to the converter tube in order to
improve oscillotor stobility, nor to the third l.F.
stoge. The time constont of the AVC is switched
by the FUNCTION SWITCH so os to provide ropid
AVC for communicotion purposes (switch set to
"COM") ond slow AVC os required for occurote
omni- ronge beorings when switched to "VOR."
A-3.

The plote circuit of V-302 is brood-bond coupled

to the grid of V-303 possing oll frequencies from
I I B to 123 mc. Low bond (or 121.5to 127 mc.,high
bond.) V-303 is the moduloted finol omplifier. lts
plote circuit is brood-bond coupled to the 50 ohm
ontenno.

porticulorly in reducing weight, ond in ovoiding
the domoge which is done to mony corbon button
microphones by the inductive "kick" which would
occur eoch time the tronsformer primory circuit
is interrupted by the mike switch.

In the ourol chonnel between the detector diode

lood ond the first oudio stoge ore interposed the
compound peok noise limiter, ond the oudio volume
control. The noise limiter includes two diodes orronged to combine both series ond shunt-type peok
limiting in o circuit in which the clipping levels
outomoticolly follow slow voriotions in corrier
strength.

A high-goin pentode speech omplifier is used in

which the low oudio f requencies ore purposely
suppressed so os to reduce engine rumble effects
which would be porticulorly bothersome in o highgoin clippingsystem.

The first oudio stoge is o high goin pentode in o

No ottempt will be mode here to describe in detoil

the technology of the VHF omni-ronge system.
Briefly the ground stotion sends out one continuo u s V H F c o r r i e r w o v e w i t h t h r e e s i m u l t o n e o u s ,b u t

Vorioble phose 30 cycles BlEo mod.) produced by effectively rototing o limocon ontenno pottern 30 times per second ot the

The reference chonnel output omplifier (V-208)

provides two independent output signols. One of
these is obtoined ocross the cothode resistonce ond
fed through o very high copocity electrolytic copocitor (C-231) to the L-R metering circuit. The plote
output is fed to o differentioting tronsformer which
shifts the phose of this voltoge by 90' with respect
to the grid voltoge. This shifted phose signol is
used to drive the TO-FROM metering circuit.
D-3.

The 3O-cycle vorioble phose component of the

oudio signol is fed through on RC-type,porollel-T,
bond-rejection f ilter tuned to 60 cycles, ond thence
through on RC-type bond-poss filter tuned to 30
c y c l e s ,t o t h e g r i d o f t h e f i r s t v o l t o g e o m p l i f i e r s t o g e
(V-201A). The purpose of the 60-cycle rejection
filter is to prevent 60-cycle components which ore
generoted by propeller modulotion ot certoin critic o l e n g i n e s p e e d s( u s u o l l y 1 8 0 0 R P M ) f r o m c o u s i n g
errors in the reodings ond slow oscillotions of the
indicotors. The 30-cycle bond-poss filter removes
voice frequency ond 9960 subcorrier components
olong with very low frequency fluctuotions, orising
in the VHF propogotion, which would couse the
m e t e r s 't o f l u c t u o t e e r r o t i c o l l y .

The vorioble phose signol is thus o 3O-cyclesine

wove modulotion whose phose ongle relotive to the
3O-cycle FM on the 9960-cycle subcorrier depends
upon the beoring of the oirplone's receiving ontenno to the stotion. The stotion is odjusted so thot
the vorioble phose signol is "in phose" with the
reference phose ot o beoring due mognetic north
(0' mog.) from the stotion.
Thus the oudio signol developed ocross the detector
lood resistor in the receiver contoins the obove three
seporote ond distinct oudio componentswhich ore
mixed together in simple oddition. lt is the purpose of the omni circuits to seporote these components, ond to indicote by meons of o course

ond the reference phose signol, os received, ond to
thus indicote the beoring to the stotion.
D-2.

VARIABLE PHASE CHANNEL

The output of the first voltoge omplifier stoge

(V-201A) is fed to the input of the phose-splitter
stoge (V-202A) through onother 30-cycle bondposs filter to further remove the undesired components. This tube hos both plote ond cothode resistors, which ore equol in volue, ond thereby
generotes two output voltoges equol in omplitude
but 180" oport in phose (phose inverter).

R E F E R E N C EP H A S E C H A N N E L

The 9960-cycle subcorrier component of the oudio

signol, which is frequently moduloted ot o 3O-cycle
rote is possed through o two-section RC type highposs filter to the grid of the limiting omplif ier tube
(V-205). This filter prevents the 30-cycle vorioble

RECTIFIERS

The crystol rectifiers used in the L-R metering

circuit (XT-201 ondXf -202) ore corefully motched

test bridge.
It is stronqly recommended thot ony replocement
