[Boatanchors] 50 khz RF generator for BA use

[Gary Schafer]

Hi Gerry,

The URM25 D goes from 10 kc to 30 mhz in about 6 or so bands. I think there are
a few different versions of this with maybe a little different coverage, I don't
remember. They have a calibrated output (leak a little) and are pretty stable.
Very nice old generator.
