The RF Coupler
This compact coupler contains a loop antenna and the necessary capacitive isolation to be compatible with the FY6900 and similar devices. The plasticenclosure keeps those components safe. The case measures about 2"Longx 1-1/4"Widex 5/8"Deep. (55mm x 35mm x 15mm). Depth at the connector extendstoabout one-inch (25mm).
Its BNC connector makes it compatible with many contemporarygenerators besides the FY6900.I also separatelysell cables that convert the BNC coupler connection to vintage Amphenol-styleconnectors used by RF generators such as those from Heathkit, B&K, Eico and others.
The Alignment Tools
This handy, non-metallic tool assortment is designed to help you quickly adjust IF coils, oscillator coils and trimming capacitors. They won't detune things as you work and fit many common transistor and tube radio coils and trimmers.
