Re: ISB Receivers
Hi All,
Once again, well done Synchrodyne, to find the Rediplex ad. I have seen another ad in the past which I can no longer find, which was directed at oil exploration/off-shore comms as being the perfect application for Rediplex.
Looking back over the course of this thread (which I see has been running for over two years now!) we have traced the changing techniques used in the generation and demodulation of ISB signals, but we haven't given the same consideration to the disappearance of space diversity receiving techniques in the reception of ISB (or any other) signals.
While early ISB receivers like the Marconi monsters featured dual or triple space diversity with appropriate combiners or switches, this capability does not appear to be present in any of the more modern receivers we have considered.
There was the Racal MA168 diversity switch for use with the RA17/117 family of receivers as an example of an outboard unit for use with two standard receivers - but what did everybody else do?
cheers
