INTRODUCTION
The Gates BC -250GY Transmitter
is
a
modern high fidelity
transmitter having every modern feature demanded
by
the modern
radio broadcasting station.
When
properly installed
and
main-
tained
it
will give years
of
trouble -free service.
The F.C.C. rated power
of the BC
-250GY transmitter
is 250
watts
and is officially approved on the records of
F.C.C.
as a
Gates
Radio Company Model BC -250GY Transmitter for amplitude
modulation.
The radio frequency range
of
the BC -250GY transmitter
is
from
540
to
1600
KC.
In each case specific
frequency determining
components
are
supplied for operation
of the
transmitter on the
frequency specified when ordering.
In
certain rare situations
of
critical antenna loading, the calculated frequency
determining
components could be
in error,
making resonance and /or loading
of
one or more circuits not complete.
In such cases advise the
factory immediately.
The
radio frequency output can be

30 to
300 ohms, but can
components.
It is
also essential that
load impedance be specified.
If
this load impedance
active, such
as
with
a
direct fed tower,
will be required.
The radio transmitter unit
is
only
one part
of
the
station install-
ation.
Each station has its own individual requirements
dependent
on the
plan
of
operation, location,
etc.
The
Consulting Engineer
usually plans
the transmitter and antenna system.
At times, ad-
ditional special equipment will be desired.
For this, consult
