Controls & Indicators
The front-panel controls and indicators for the SAM and SAM II include:
1. Power-Pull: On-off switch, also functions as the dispersion control for the spectrum analyzer.
2. Attenuator: Sets input range and changes meter scale.
3. Band: Selects one of five frequency bands.
4. Dial: Tunes frequencies from 4 MHz to 300 MHz.
5. Fine Tune: Works with the main tuning dial for peaking control.
6. RF IN: Input jack for signals to be measured.
7. Function: Selects meter mode (e.g., level, hum).
8. Gain: Provides 10 dB variable gain.
9. SIN: Compensates noise readings for 4 MHz bandwidth.
10. Light: Illuminates meter.
11. AFC: Energizes AFC circuit for meter peaking.
12. Jack: 110 VAC input for charging.
13. Charge: Indicates battery charging.
14. On: Indicates SAM is turned on.
15. Manual/Rate Switch: Selects between manual and recurrent sweep control.
16. Sweep Rate/Manual: Controls spectrum sweep rate.
17. Horiz.: Sweep ramp output for analyzer option.
18. Video/Vert.: Video output and scope vertical for analyzer option.
19. + —: Voltmeter input jacks.
20. Audio: Energizes internal audio circuit.
21. Out: Internal calibrator output signal.
22. Set: Calibration control for signal level meter function.
23. Speaker: Included.
24. Meter: Scales for dBmV, % hum, & AC-DC volts.
For SAM II, additional controls include:
– PGM/MAN.: Selects manual or keyboard tuning.
– Keyboard: Selects channels to be measured.
– Tuning: Coarse and fine tuning for signal level meter mode.
– PIX/SND: Selects A or B function on keyboard.

Operation
The manual provides detailed instructions on the operation and basic usage steps for the SAM and SAM II units. The primary controls for both units include a Power-Pull switch to energize the unit, an Attenuator to set input range, and a Function selector for meter modes. The SAM unit includes controls such as Band, Dial, Fine Tune, RF IN, Gain, SIN, Light, AFC, and others for specific functionalities like spectrum analysis and signal measurement. The SAM II unit has similar controls with additional features like PGM/MAN. for manual or keyboard tuning and a digital frequency display.
For standard test setup, the manual specifies control positions such as setting the Power-Pull to “on,” the Attenuator for a specific dBmV range, and the Function to SLM. The manual also describes the measurement ranges and accuracy for frequency, amplitude, hum, and voltage, as well as general specifications like IF Bandwidth, resolution, and power requirements.
