The requirements of a modulator switch are to (1) reach full conduction quickly (2) consume low power (3) start and stop conduciton suddenly and (4) conduct hight currents and handle high voltages. Which of the following tubes meets these requirements?
A thyratron
Indicator sweep voltage in a radar is normally initiated at which of the following times?
At the same time as the transmitter trigger
What channel in a monopulse receiver is used as the reference channel?
IF
What is the purpose of introducing water vapor into a tr tube?
It decreases deionization time
In the input of the first video amplifier of a radar receiver, the differentiator circuit performs which of the following functions?
Ftc
Using a frequency synthesizer instead of a heterodyning mixer as the frequency generating source for a power-amplifier transmilter is an advantage because the frequency synthesizer...?

The lin-log amplifier provides a linear output voltage for what amplitude of input signal and a logarithmic ouput volutage for what amplitude of input signal?
Low and high
Which of the following magnetron characteristics can be caused by low magnetic field strengths?
Low power output, excessive plate current and incorrect operating frequency
In the mti system, what is the purpose of the coho lock pulse?
To synchronize the coho and transmitted frequency phase relationship
