I've recently added another working mad scientist device to my collection of old electronics.
It's a marconi signal generator!
What can you do with it you might ask? well....
first of all he is an absolute beauty
just look at his dials and knobs and buttons and switches ...
He is a bit chubby at 30kg but lugging him around is definitely worth it.
And he is one tough piece of equipment. Got dropped multiple times. Got wet. Lost its protective coverings. And all it took to get him back to working order was a sex change of his power input.
But what can he do?
He can send Radio signals on all frequencies between 10-72000khz.
These signals can be a Morse frequencie at 400hz or 1000hz.
Or you can modulate a carrier wave via an external input
He is a bit stubborn as the input is 25k Ohm resistance so he is difficult to drive but my roommate an me managed to kinda do it he was also missing an antenna but for testings a roll of solder was enough to replace it.
And what did we accomplish with that?
well...
Yes yes that sound is coming out of the radio!
This old lad can still do it! We've transmitted stuff over the radio! Not much power at all we could barely receive it and had to turn the volume all the way up but it still amazes me that we sent music via radio waves over the air!
All in all he is one sexy frequency generator!
His tubes might not be as impressive as my big tube milf psu but he got it where it counts.
There is much more to tell about him and his siblings but that's for a different time when I decide to expand the personalities of my menagerie of cool electronics.
Thinking about Ta!Ash viewing his aura kind of like a symbiote in the way that Ash see’s his aura alive and almost having a mind of its own during moments where he’s very relaxed and unguarded.
