Help Wanted:- H.S.A. AERIAL AMP.
 

Can anyone help me with info on the following item:-

H.S.A. Ltd Manchester series aerial amplifier,

serial no. B3-70-68 Issue no. 3 DWG no 16207A
Last tested 17-11-71 by BGA 316.

I know its a "big ask" but does anyone remember working with the above type of equipment ?. If so can you answer the following questions:-

What it the input (operating ) voltage
What is the frequency range
Is the amplification on receive only ( or TX too )
If it amplifies on transmit, what is the max input power
What is the gain on RX ( & TX )
Where can I find more details ...circuit diagrams...manual

I bought this item at a Radio Rally to use as spares, however upon examination found the unit to be in excellent condition. It would be a shame not to use this amp. for its primary use so any help would be most welcome. THANKS GUYS.

Hi speedbird.

Looking at the date last tested you may want to try this site for information: UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum - Powered by vBulletin

I would also pop the question on here, suprising how many are in the business.......

Hi, I would suggest that you look at the input side and see what type of in-built transformer system it has...if its a lennear amp for use in aircraft it will most definately be 24v...
