The old GPT-750 from - is being modified to enable the master oscillator oven heaters to be energized without activating other circuits in the transmitter, and to eliminate mechanical vibrations of the power amplifier blower which were modulating the master oscillator frequency. These modifications can also be used for the other four GPT-750's which were purchased two years ago for evaluation. 3. Twenty-six dummy load coaxial resistors, 50-ohm, 500-watt, were requisitioned as part of a program to provide a reliable and simplified tuning procedure for the HT-4/TAC-1 transmitter-antenna coupler a ui n procedure utilizing a directional watt meter and the dummy load is being issued as 4.
