When used for lowest distortion, the output ofeither channel is of the order of 1 to Output levels of 8-10 volts are ol)-tainahle if a few per cent distortion is increased output capability is obtained byreadjusting the oscillator cathode resistance. The total B current drain of both oscil-lators and output stages is about 16 ma. Line-voltage variations do not greatly influence the.

Larger screen by-pass andcoupling capacitors do not add particularly to theperformance of the unit since fixed-freciuencyoperation is used. Typical voltage readings taken with a are as follows: 1) B+ at output of filter = -f 120 to -(-130volts. 2) Esg = -f30 to +40 volts. 3) Ef, = -f-55 to -1-80 volts. 4) Ek (pentode) = to volt. 5) Ek (triode) = 6 to volts. Construction The chassis layout of the phase-shift oscillatoris not critical. The entiie unit is constructed on a5 X 7 X l3
