I particularly remember the precision vernier for setting the UHF channels. It even had a hand typewritten scale which told you the exact setting for each channel.
So you fed the CH4 output of the B&K into the output of the UHF converter and the converter worked backwards and spit UHF out of it's input?....I never thought of that but the principal seems sound. This gives me some fascinating ideas for UHF agile modulator add-ons to my existing VHF modulators.
