COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVER MODEL SX-71 DESCRIPTION ‘The Model SX-71 is a precision built, highly sensitive, double conversion superheterodyne communteations re~ ceiver which employs Li tubes plus voltage regulator and rectifier and covers the frequency range of 560 kilocycles: (KC) to 58 megacycles (MC). The recelver is designed for reception of code (CW), amplitule modulated (AM) and narrow band frequency modulated (NBFM) signals over its entire frequency range as shown below. The use of double conversion makes possible greater image rejection thanis practical ina single conversion superheterodyne recetver. For ease and flexibility of operation, two extra-wide slide rule diala are provided, One provides for general coverage over the frequency range of $60 KC to $4 MC and the other is @ (caer Soe Tee fared ipeciicaly for te80, 40,40, 1610, | BAND] FREQUENCY RANGE | RECEPTION | ‘and 6 meter amateur bande.

AM/NBFM/CW) 45MC-_56MC_|AM/NBFM/CW| FREQUENCY COVERAGE For the ultimate in selectivity, a variable crystal filter and a erystal phasing control are used so that the receiver can be peak adjusted for that hard-to-read signal. A carrier level meter has been provided to aid in tuning the receiver and to give arelative indication of recelved signal strength. ‘The audio system provides sufficient audio power to operate either a speaker or headphones. For speaker operation, a separate external loud speaker of either 3.2 or 800 ohms is required. A phono jack permits attachment of a record player, An automatic series noise limiter, operated by a toggle switch, permits the operator to reduce the background noise caused by severe electrical disturbances. ‘The RECEIVE-STANDBY switch permits disabling of the receiver for standby periods without having to wait for the tube heaters to reach operating temperature when reception is again required. ‘The SX+71 normally operates from a 105-125 valt 50/60 cycle alternating current (AC) power source. The ‘SK-T71U, a universal model of the SX-T1, permits operation from 25/60 eycle AC sources at voltages ranging from 105 to 250 volts. Both models have provision for operation from an external DC power source. ‘The power con- ‘sumption of each model is 90 watts. Page 2‘Your careful attention is especidlly invited to the installation and operating instructions. They have been provided to insure the eatisfaction you have a right to expect {rom a Mailicrattere "Precision Built” product, Your Teceiver has an unusually high degree of sensitivity necessary to receive Weak and distant siatlons. Careless ‘operation of a high sensilivity receiver may result in excess noise oF background hiss. These undesirable effects ean be held to a minimum by careful adjustment of the sensitivity, tuning and tone controls as well as proper selec= tion and arrangement of the antenna. INSTALLATION UNPACKING ~ Check all shipping tags and labels for instructions befo: removing or destroying them. LOCATION - The receiver is equipped with rubber mounting fect for table top or shelf mounting. When locating the receiver, avold excessively warm locations and recessed installations which prevent proper air circulation. The separate loud speaker should not be placed on the top of the cabinet but should be located as far from thereceiver as is practical. FIG. 2. REAR VIEW POWER SOURCE - This receiver may be operated directly from an AC source or indirectly from a DGor battery AC OPERATION - The SX-71 can be operated directly from a 105-125 volt, 50/80 eycle AC power outlet. The universal model, the SX-71U, is designed for operation from 115, 130, 150, 220 and 250 volt, 25/60 cycle AC sources. A selector switch, located on the power transformer, permits operation of the SX-71U on any of the line voltages shown, The normal power consumption of each model 1s 80 watts, If in doubt as to the frequeney and voltage rating of your power source, contact the local power company respresentative. Attempting to operate the receiver from sources of power not specified may result in costly repairs. CAUTION ~ When operating the universal model, it is essential that the selector switch setting correspond to the operating line voltage before connecting the receiver to the AC power NOTE: Tho recolver will not operate from an AC source unless the JUMPER PLUG is inserted in the DC POWER SOCKET. See Fig. 2.

Satisfactory results can be obtained in most localities with the 15 foot antenna wire included with your receiver. Siniply uneoll the wire, connect one end of it to terminal Al and then connect the jumper between terminals A2 and G ‘An outside antenna 50 to 100 feet long may be nee ary if the receiver is operated in a difffealt reception area or Steel constructed building, Reception may be Improved in some locations by comecting a Iead from terminal G to a ‘cold water pipe or outside ground rod. FIG. 4. SINGLE WIRE ANTENNA INSTALLATION DOUBLET ANTENNA - The overall length (tn feet) of the doublet antenna is determined by dividing 468 by the frequency (in mogacycles) at the high end of the range t0 which you Wish to listen. A doublet antenns is directional broadside to its length and should be so oriented with respect to a desired station for maximum signal pickup. By feoding the doublet antenna with a 800-chm transmission line, a broader frequency response Is obtained than that possible with 50-75 ohm tine, When feeding the antenna with a ribbon type transmission line, coonect the line to terminals At and AQ and disconnect the jumper between A2 and G. When using 2 coaxial transmission line, connect the Inner conductor to Al, the outer conductor to AZ ‘and place the jumper between A2 and G. Page 4 called a doublet Fig. For really top performance on the shortwave bands, ig no substitute for an outside antenna such as used by the commercial radio stations. Provision has been made on your receiver for the connection of this type of antenna, commonly When properly constructed and installed, the doublet antenna will provide not only optimum shortwave reception but excellent standard broadcast reception as well. Installation details for the doublet antenna are given below. ® there soween ae DOUBLET ANTENNA INSTALLATIONSPEAKER CONNECTION- Three screw type terminals, marked 3.2,500 and G, are provided on the rear apron of the chassis for conneetion to an external 3,2 or 500 ohm speaker.

WIRING DIAGRAM FOR RECORD PLAYER CONNECTION REMOTE RECEIVE / STANDBY SWITCH CONNECTION - The receiver maybedisabled remotely by connecting 4 re- ‘mote spst switch between pins I and 4 of the JUMPER PLUG (see Fig. 2). To operate the receiver remotely, set the RECEIVE/STANDBY switch, located on the front panel of the receiver, to the STANDBY position, The receiver can then be placed in RECEIVE or STANDBY operation with the remote switch, TRANSMITTER CONTROL SWITCH - One terminal of the spdt RECEIVE/STANDBY switch is connected to pin 2ofthe DC POWER SOCKET and 1s available for transmitter relay control, The arm of the RECEIVE/STANDBY switch is grounded to the chassis. In the STANDBY position, pin 2 is grounded; in the RECEIVE position, pin 2 is insulated from ground, OPERATION Each control of the Model SX-71 communications receiver performs a definite function that contributes to the outstanding reception capabilities. Full appreciation of the recolver is to be expected only after you have become familiar with each of the controls and the effect their operation has on the receiver's performance. RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION To receive amplitude modulated (AM) and narrow band frequency modulated (NBFM) radio telephone signals, the following use of the controls is recommended to obtain optimam performance from the Model SK-71 communications receiver. VOLUME control ‘This control turas the receiver on and off in addition to controlling the volume, Turn the control clockwise to turn the receiver on or inerease volume and counterclockwise to reduce volume, To turn the receiver off, turn the VOLUME control counterclockwise Deyond the point of switeh action, RECEIVE/STANDBY —_This switch, normally set at RECEIVE, Is particularly useful to the "ham" as it permits switeh disabling of the receiver for standby periods, at the same time maintaining the tube heaters at operating temperature for instant use, The receiver is disabled by setting this switch to the STANDBY position, BLF.O, switch ‘This switeh is set at OFF for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION, RECEPTION control This control should be set at N.BF.M. for the reception of narrow band frequency mod- ulated radio telephone stations located in any of the shortwave bands, To receive ampli- tude modulated radio telephone signals over any portion of the frequency range, three positions of the RECEPTION control may be used: NORMAL I.F,, BROAD CRYSTAL and SHARP CRYSTAL, The broadest bandwidth is obtained in the NORMAL LF, position and the narrowest in the SHARP CRYSTAL position. Note that as the receiver is made more selective, the background noise and interference from adjacent changels is reduced. The use of the crystal filter will require an adjustment of the CRYSTAL PHASING control. Refer to "USE OF CRYSTAL PHASING CONTROL" for details, BAND SELECTOR Set the BAND SELECTOR for the desired position as indicated by the band number on the control dial scale, Bands 1 through 4 are found on the left hand or main tuning dial and band § is ‘on the right hand or bandspread dial, Page 5MAIN TUNING control BANDSPREAD control SENSITIVITY control TONE control NOISE LIMITER switch C.W, PITCH control ‘This control sots the frequency of reception of bands 1 through 4 after the individual band has been selected by the BAND SELECTOR. ‘Frequencies of all bands are shown in megacycles (MC). For reception on band 5, this control must be set for 100 on the logging scale. IMPORTANT - The calibrations on the main tuning dial seales will be true only when the bandspread dial pointer is set at 100 on the bandspread logging scale. This control sets the frequency of reception on band § after the band has been selected by the BAND SELECTOR. The calibration of the band § dial scale will be true only when the main tuning dial pointer, is set at 100 on the main tuning logging seale: More specifically, however, the BANDSPREAD control functions to electrically spread oat the amateur ard shortwave bands. Amateur band reception - To use the BANDSPREAD control on the amateur bands, index the MAIN TUNING control for any of the amateur bands as indleated by the white dots on ‘the main tuning dial, Then tune through the band with the BANDSPREAD control. ‘The frequency of reception can he read directly {rom the bandspread dial scale, Short Wave reception ~ To tune shortwave broadcast stations with the BANDSPREAD control; set the bandspread dial pointer at 100; set the main tuning dial pointer slightly hhigher in frequency than the desired group of short waye stations and then tune in the stations with the BANDSPREAD control. Note that the frequency af reception cannot be read directly from either set of dial scales when tuning in this manner. However, short wave stations may be logged by recording the dial pointer settings indicated on the band~ spread and main tuning logging scales. This control is normally set fully clockwise for maximum sensitivity. For a correct "5" meter indication, the SENSITIVITY control must be set fully elockwise, ‘This control attenuates the high audio frequencies to the extent required by various re- ceiving conditions and should be set at 10 for normal response. Turn the TONE control counterclockwise to attenuate the high frequency audio response, This switch is normally set to the OFF position. When natural or "man made” static in- terfores with reception, this switch should be set at NOISE LIMITER to reduce the in- terference. ‘This control is not used for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION, ‘CW RECEPTION - The following use of the controls is recommended for CW (code) reception to obtain optimum performance {rom the receiver. B.F.O, switch C.W, PITCH control VOLUME control RECEIVE/STANDBY switch BAND SELECTOR ‘eontrol ‘MAIN TUNING control BANDSPREAD control RECEPTION control TONE control Page 6 ‘This switch should be set at B.P.O, for CW RECEPTION, ‘This control varies the frequency of the beat frequency oscillator thus varying the pitch of the CW code signal. After tuning in a code signal, this control should be adjusted for the tone most pleasing to the operator, Same as for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION. Same as for Radio TELEPHONE RECEPTION, Same as for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION, Same as for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION, Same as for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION, Set this control at NORMAL LF, If a greater selectivity is desired, this control should be set at BROAD CRYSTAL or SHARP CRYSTAL. The use of the crystal filter will re~ quire an adjustment of the CRYSTAL PHASING control, Refer to "USE OF CRYSTAL PHASING CONTROL" for details, ‘This control should be set at 0 for CW RECEPTION,SENSITIVITY control _ Increase receiver sensitivity by turning the SENSITIVITY control clockwise. If strong code signals block the receiver, reduce the sensitivity slightly, NOISE LIMITER switch The noise limiter circuit is particularly useful for code reception because it "elips” the intermittent noise peaks down to the level of the desired signal where they tend tobecome unnoticeable, See Fig. 7 for an illustration of limiter action, OOO FIG. 7. NOISE LIMITER ACTION USE OF CRYSTAL PHASING CONTROL - This control permits the discrimination of interfering signals whose fre- quencies are very nvar the desired signal, To attain single signal reception withthe SX~71, first set the RECEPTION switch to cither BROAD CRYSTAL or SHARP CRYSTAL, Choose a strong signal, preferably a commercial station because a commercial station is likely to remain on long enough for you to complete the phasing adjustment for single signal reception. ‘You will find on tuning across this signal that it has two amplitudes. Turn the CRYSTAL PHASING control until the weaker of the two amplitudes is reduced to a minimum. Then, tune to the stronger of the two amplitudes and adjust the C.W. PITCH control (for c-w reception) to a tone most pleasing to you. This adjustment for single signal selectivity will require no further adjustment unless you change the CRYSTAL PHASING control. See Fig. 8 for an Mustration of single signal operation. FIG, 8. SINGLE S)QNAL OPERATION NOTES ON NBFM RECEPTION ~ When tuning in amateur radiophone stations using narrow band frequency modula~ tion, tune for minimum distortion. Note that in general, the headset or speaker volume is slightly less than for AM phone reception. This is normal. However, when the volume level is very low, it indicates that the deviation of the FM signal is considerably below + 2.5 KC. When the received signal is loud and very distorted, the transmitted signal has a deviation in excess of + 2.5 KC, In extreme cases of distortion, reception may be Improved by switch {ing to normal AM reception and tuning off to one side of the transmitted carrier as is customary with receivers not ‘equipped with FM detectors, however, in this case the quieling effects of PM are not available, ‘The SX-T1 receiver has been designed to provide optimum results when receiving FM signals having a maximum of 4 2.5 KC deviation, Note that when the receiver is switched to NBFM, the "'S" meter is rendered inoperative. USE OF THE "S" METER - The °S" meter or carrier level meter has been provided to aid in tuning the receiver for amplitude modulated radio telephone reception and to give an indication of relative carrier strength of each in- coming AM signal. For a correct "S" meter indication, the SENSITIVITY controt must be fully clockwise and the receiver must be tuned for a maximum reading on the 'S" meter. ‘The "'S" meter circuit is disabled for CW and narrow band FM reception. RECORD PLAYER OPERATION - Connect the record player to the receiver; set the RECEPTION control to PHONO and then place the receiver in operation by turning the VOLUME control clockwise beyond the point of switch action. ‘Operate the VOLUME and TONE controls as for RADIO TELEPHONE RECEPTION, The setting of the remaining controls is immaterial as they are not in use for record player operation, HEADPHONE OPERATION - ‘The PHONES jack, located on the front panel, permits tho use of headphones with this receiver, Insertion of the headphones disables the speaker. Use any standard headset of low or medium impedance. es Page?SERVICE Sea eeattons Eoene a cos a Genesee aera a tae eae oem cena ae nee dial cord to the spring at position A, steeteh the spring and follow the stringing procedure A through U as.
