Reception set R209 Mk2
The Reception set R209 Mk2 was a 10 valve high grade super  heterodyne receiver, with facilities for receiving Voice (AM or FM) and CW.

The FM facility however was not required for operational use, CFS facilities were also provided.

It was hermetically sealed, built on miniature lines and incorporated its own vibrator power supply unit driven by a 12 volt battery.

The set could have been used in the following stations : -
a) Auxiliary station to replace the reception set R109 in the WS76 station.

b) Auxiliary station to replace reception set R107 in the WS53 station.

c) Man - pack station.

d) Vehicle/animal station.

It could also be used in place of the reception set R106 and R206 in cases where lightness was of paramount importance.
 

Ten valves and a neon stabilizer were employed in the set, which attained high stability by means of a very rigid RF chassis and  well constructed condenser drive.

Other features of the set included a unit system of construction and employment of miniature technique throughout.

Frequency Coverage
1 to 20 Mc/s  in 4 Bands.
Band1 : - 20 to 12 Mc/s.
Band 2 : - 12.5 to 5.5 Mc/s.
Band 3 : - 5.6 to 2.3 Mc/s.
Band 4 : - 2.3 to 1.0 Mc/s.

The set provided for reception from rod, open-wire or dipole aerials, with loudspeaker and phone output.

Brief Electrical Description
The two aerial inputs fed in at 80 ohm and 1000 ohm to the RF amplifier.

A separate local oscillator was employed and this, with the mixer and RF amplifier was mounted on the chassis.
 

 

Three IF units and the discriminator unit were plugged into the IF chassis to which 460 kc/s output from the mixer was fed.

A band -width of 5 kc/s at 6db was obtained in the IF amplifier.

The limiter-discriminator unit employed a diode-pentode valve, which was also used as a detector on AM.

The beat oscillator, also a plug-in unit, was supported by the audio chassis.

The output was a self-driven push-pull stage, fed into a loudspeaker and two pairs of phones.

AVC on AM  was obtained from the detector diode load and was applied to the RF amplifier and to the 1st and 2nd IF amplifiers.
