 +====== SE-403: M1K ======
 +**Motorized shortwave station**, **M1K** or **SE-403**; developed by [[Telefunken Berlin]], manufactured by [[Telefunken|Telefunken, Zürich]]; the transmitter was constructed under license from [[Autophon]].
  
 +The motorized shortwave station M1K was developed by [[Telefunken Berlin]] GmbH in 1941 - 1944, it was called Telefunken shortwave station 1122B.\\ 
 +In Switzerland, the transmitter was built under license by [[Autophon]], the newly developed [[E44]] was used as main receiver and the station was installed on a Saurer M6 or 2CM off-road truck. So the SE-403 became the first Swiss motorized high power station for the signal troops.

 +===== Station Equipment =====
 +The first motorized high power radio station of the signal troops was built on a Saurer M6 truck chassis, the station vehicle had a weight of 9,350 kg, the diesel generator on the single-axle trailer another 2,100 kg. For duplex operation, the receiver had to be operated in a distant location, either remote controlled or in a separate signals vehicle.
 +
 +The Telefunken - [[Transmitter]] As 3028 has a four stage construction, the driver stage can be capacitively tuned in six areas, the transmitter final stage can be tuned with variometers, contact wire variometers are used for antenna tuning.\\ 
 +Three [[de:RV12P2000]] Wehrmacht valves and one [[de:LS50]] are used in the transmitter, four [[de:LS50]] in the driver stage and two [[de:RS384]] in the final output stage, the transmitter pentodes are grid-modulated.\\ 
 +The station has an output power of 1000 - 1400 W in CW telegraphy (A1) and 300 - 350 watts in modulated telegraphy and telephony.
 +
 +Initially, the Autophon [[sm46]] all-wave receiver was used as main receiver, it is equipped with a turret tuner and a calibrated frequency dial and exclusively with battery valves [[D1F]] are used.\\ 
 +Later, the autophone [[E-627]] was used as station receiver.
 +
 +Initially, a vehicle roof antenna was used with the M1K / SE-403, later it was replaced by a rod antenna. A 12 m umbrella antenna or a half-wave long-wire antenna was installed for fixed use.
 +
 +The M1K / SE-403 was the first station of the Swiss Army to use high speed telegraphy "[[Schnelltelegraph MFA| Schnelltelegraphie - System Moser - Baer]]". The relief of the station personnel from morse code training could not be realized. Slow telegraphy operators were able to read the Morse code signs printed on the paper tape only slowly, and some well trained radiotelegraphists could real morse code in quite high speed directly from the headphones.\\ 
 +It was only after the transgression to teleprinter operation with the [[ETK]] in 1955, when the requirements for station personnel in decoding Morse telegraphy were no longer necessary.
 +
 +===== Technical principle =====
 +{{:images:se-403-m1k-sender-as60-block.jpg?direct&600|}}\\ 
 +===== Technical principle =====
 +**Transmitter AS60**: In the **transmitter driver** a [[de:LS50]] works as oscillator, the following stage serves as a separation stage for frequencies from 3 - 6 MHz and as a doubler stage at operating frequencies of 6 - 12 MHz; the two variable capacitors of the tuning unit are in synchronicity. The signal is fed to the transmitter final stage, where another [[de:LS50]] works as a separation stage for frequencies below 12.5 MHz, in the frequency range 12.5 - 25 MHz, this stage again acts as a doubler stage. In the output stage two [[de:RS384]] work in parallel. The antenna signal is coupled by a series of selectable capacitors and the antenna is tuned by variometers.
 +
 +In telephony, the transmitter is modulated via a three-stage amplifier (two [[de:RV12P2000]] and one [[de:LS50]] directly on the grid of the transmitter output tubes. In telegraphy, local keying or keying via a DC voltage (operation mode "Fern I") is done via the keying relay acting on keying valve 1 ([[de:RV12P2000]]). When modulated telegraphy is used (operation mode Fern II, [[A2]]), the audio signal is amplified and applied directly to the grid of the first modulator valve.

 +** Receiver**: see [[sm46]] resp. [[E-627]]

 +==== Valve layout ====
 +{{ :images:se-403-autophon-as60.jpg?direct&200|Transmitter if the M1K}}**Transmitter**: V1 ([[de:LS50]], driver stage); V2 ([[de:LS50]], 1st separation / doubler stage); V3 ([[de:LS50]], 2nd separation / doubler stage); V4, V5 (two [[de:RS384]], final output stage);\\ 
 +V6, V7 (two [[de:RV12P2000]], NF amplifier stages); V8 ([[de:LS50]], LF amplifier output stage / modulator valve); V9 ([[de:RV12P2000]], keying valve); V10 ([[de:LS50]], keying valve).\\ 
 +Stabilizer [[de:STV 280/80]], iron hydrogen resistor 100 - 300 V, 150 mA.
 +
 +==== Development ====
 +The **Motorized shortwave station M1K** was developed by [[Telefunken Berlin|Telefunken GmbH]] in Berlin from 1941, production began in 1944 and was delayed due to the war. Finally the transmitter was manufactured by [[Autophon]] under license as **AS60**; the Autophon - all-wave receiver [[sm46]] was used as main receiver. The antenna material had to be adapted to Swiss topography, [[Telefunken]] Zurich was responsible to install the station equipment in the vehicles.
 +
 +==== Field use ====
 +From 1947 - 1951, 20 stations were constructed on the base of a Saurer M6 off-road truck at a unit price of CHF 330,000. An additional station was used in Bülach.
 +
 +The M1K / SE-403 was used for command communications by the Signal Kp of the Field Corps and the Signal Kp of the Army. After the single sideband station [[SE-222]] in 1960 with the signal companies of the Field Corps, all M1K stations were transferred to Signal division 6 and after the radio teletype station [[SE-415]] was introduced, the stations were definitely withdrawn and liquidated in 1980.
