Manual Overview

The operation manual for the Drake INSTRUCTION Model 2-BQ Q Multiplier provides detailed guidance on troubleshooting, calibration, and adjustments. When first using the Q Multiplier, users may experience difficulty in locating the notch. The Q BALANCE control is crucial for achieving maximum rejection of unwanted signals. To set the Q BALANCE, users should initially locate a stable signal using the TUNING dial in the PEAK position, switch to NOTCH, and adjust the Q BALANCE until the heterodyne is rejected. Fine-tuning both the TUNING and Q BALANCE controls will optimize signal rejection.

For notching out a heterodyne, the manual advises switching to NOTCH, tuning the desired signal with the ON-OFF switch off, and then adjusting the TUNING knob for attenuation. If the interfering carrier frequency drifts, users should adjust the Q Multiplier TUNING rather than retuning the receiver. For peaking a CW signal, the PEAK-NOTCH switch should be set to PEAK, and the Q BALANCE adjusted for the desired sharpness. Installation with the Model 2-B Receiver involves connecting the Q MULT socket and speaker leads appropriately. The manual includes a schematic diagram for further technical reference.

Quick Issues Covered

  • Diagnose Q Multiplier tuning issues with Q BALANCE control.
  • Error codes not applicable; focus on manual adjustments for notching.
  • Use schematic for circuit tracing and component identification.

Plug the cable into the Q MULT socket on the back of the Model 2-B receiver. Connect the speaker leads to the screw terminals marked SPKR and GND.

Operation

The Q Multiplier’s operation involves setting the Q BALANCE control for maximum rejection of notching. Initially, locate the TUNING dial setting using the PEAK position and then switch to NOTCH to adjust the Q BALANCE control for rejection of the heterodyne. Fine-tuning of TUNING and Q BALANCE will optimize rejection. For notching out a heterodyne, switch to NOTCH, tune the desired signal with the ON-OFF switch OFF, then switch ON and adjust the TUNING knob for attenuation. Follow any frequency drift with the Q Multiplier TUNING. For peaking a C.W. signal, switch to PEAK, tune the signal with the ON-OFF switch OFF, then switch ON and adjust the TUNING knob for increased signal level. Adjust Q BALANCE for desired sharpness, with the sharpest peak just below oscillation. The TUNING control allows fine adjustment.
