+ | ====== E-646 ====== | ||
+ | **Reception system E-646**; developed and produced by [[Zellweger|Zellweger AG, Uster]]. | ||
+ | After the World War II Swiss air raid alarm network was in need of renewal, [[Zellweger|Zellweger, | ||
+ | |||
+ | For the air situation reporting network operated by the Flieger- Flabtruppen of the Swiss Army, the [[S-510]] transmitter system was used to broadcast the air situation reports. In the command posts, the corresponding receiver E-646 was used. | ||

+ | ===== Operation ===== | ||
+ | The [[Zellweger Uster]] receiver E-646 has been introduced as alarm receiver to be used with the air attack alarm network in connection with the air attack alarm transmitter [[S-510]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To adress parts of the troops directly with alarm transmissions, | ||
+ | |||
+ | All receivers come with a preprogrammed "Group address" | ||
+ | After the voice message is transmitted, | ||
+ | |||
+ | For selective call operation, the modes switch has to set to RN or RK. In " | ||
+ | |||
+ | In the "short selective call mode RK" as well as in all other reception modes, the receiver is active continously and batteries are exhausted quickly. The modes A3, A3JU and A3JO stand for normal AM and LSB / USB reception. It's good to know, that in German language U stands for lower and O stands for upper sideband. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | In contrast to the prototype, the speaker grill has been moved to the left part of the frontpanel. In the upper row of controls, you find the modes switch to activate A3 / A3JU and A3JO as well es the selective call modes RN (with short monitor periods and low power consumption) and RK with continuous monitoring for coded transmissions, | ||
+ | |||
+ | In the lower row of controls, you find the main switch, the colume control, the connectors for headphones, external speaker, 24 V DC power and the BNC antenna socket. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The receiver E-646 can be powered from an external mains power supply, four ALN 6135-265-1751 7,5 Volt - batteries or by use of an adaptor 16 UM-1 mono cell batteries at 1,5 Volts each.\\ | ||
+ | An external matching speaker can be used at a maxiumum distance of 25 meters, it has a separate volume control and a headphones jack which will switch off the speaker when active. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | The air attack service on fixed shortwave frequencies with it's unique selective call system is not active anymore, the receiver can be used a a decent shortwave receiver to monitor Your favourite international shortwave broadcasters. It's well suited for fixed frequency operation, scanning throug a shortwave band is cumbersome as the set has only decadic frequency switches and no tuning knob. The set comes without electronic frequency memories and without all the goodies to improve reception under dufficult conditions as switchable I.F. bandwidths, notch filter, variable AGC speeds and so on.\\ | ||
+ | But if you use it for that, what it was made for, the E-646 is an excellent rugged stable fixed frequency single sideband receiver. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Technical Principle ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Semiconductor setup ==== | ||
+ | The set is completely solid state. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Development ==== | ||
+ | The air alarm message broadcasting system [[S-510]] / E-646 was developed by [[Zellweger]], | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Field use ==== | ||
+ | Twenty-three [[S-510]] transmitters and a total of 420 E-646 receivers were acquired in 1981/83; 397 of the receivers were of the normal version and 23 of the K version, the catalogue price was 15086.- Fr. (including antenna material).\\ | ||
+ | From the antenna material bags ANT E-646, 280 units (at a price of 1650.- Fr.) and from the remote operation unit SDZ-646 20 units (unit price 6790.- Fr.) were procured. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In 2004, the operation of the air alarm network on shortwaves was closed down; in 2006, the shortwave receivers were sold as surplus and were temporarily sold even in Army Liq shops. | ||
