[NJARC] What's up with BAMA? And how do I use a Heath SB-610?

For simple modulation monitoring of the transmitters's output, the SB-610
goes in series with the transmission line. There are two SO-239
connectors on the back of the SB-610. Adjust the various front panel
controls for a viewable waveform. Not a lot of mystery here as far as
connections. If you're running a linear amplifier, and want a trapezoidal
pattern, two more RF connections are required (between exciter and
linear).
