Old / Newer Sig-Gen output values
#1

Still fairly new at tube type radio repair. Just completed alignment on an Olympic model 411. Was impressed with it's final sensitivity and volume. Decided to use it to preform my first stage gain measurements to both increase my knowledge of stage operation and strengthen my troubleshooting skills. Ran into my problem fairly quickly when instructions guide me to adjust my sig-gen output to 3500 microvolts.  That value is a bit difficult to locate on my HP 8640B. Had read some where many months ago of a difference between older and newer sig-gen output terminology and values. Seems my search engine skills are lacking worse than my sig-gen skills. After considerable time at research my success was zero. Could someone please give me a heads up on conversion from old to new terminology and values.

Take Care

Tim
