Title5N10.63 - Voltage Reading of Polarized Radio Waves - Solid States
Objective

​To demonstrate how much voltage is present on a polarized radio wave using the uhf solid state transmitter

StatusAvailable
Assembly Instructions

Connect the transmission antenna to the uhf transmitter.  Plug the transmitter into an on/off switch.  Connect a projection voltmeter to the receiving antenna with banana plug inputs.  Provide the reflection bar.  Tape down the banana leads with blue tape so the meter does not move from its position when the professor is using the receiver for imaging purposes.​

Operation Instructions

Turn on the uhf transmitter.  With the receiver parallel to the transmitter, observe the reading on the voltage meter.  When the receiver is perpendicular, watch the voltage go to zero.​
