Looking for some info on various Eddystone 1650 models
 

Hello,

I am looking for some general info on the Eddystone 1650 receivers.
Specifically, I have an interest in the 1650/6 and 1650/7 models which
I own.

The model 1650/6 is intended for computer control and has only two
crystal filters installed (3kHz and 8kHz). It also has a 100kHz IF
output, however, I do not understand what this output was intended to
be used for. Was it for an external FSK demodulator?

Also, how does the 1650/7 model differ from the 1650/1, 1650/3,
1650/8, 1650/9 and 1650/10 models? Can someone shed some light on what
some of these numeric suffixes signify?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Maybe. Or an external product detector or a panadaptor. IF outputs
are very useful for all kinds of things.

It's a brand of tape recorder that audiophiles who can't afford
Studer-brand equipment _dream_ of, and drool when they dream. Now,
of course, tape gear is sort-of moot, unless you're an audiophile.
Nagra has gone digital, and that stuff is way cool, too.

The Nagra DII and its predecessors have been pretty much _the_
standard for field recording for quite a long time.

on your bib first.

That's because stereo has two points!

Mono has only a single point.

take your word for it.

Audiophiles: people who buy outrageously expensive multiple
parallel cables to connect their outrageously expensive hi-fi
gear to their outrageously expensive speakers.

P'raps. But sometimes it's the guy who produces a PRI radio show out
of his living room, like I did for almost 9 years, and/or makes
recordings of various performances as part of his income. I've done a
lot of that, too.

Either way, one needs broadcast-quality gear to make broadcast-
quality recordings. And I'm addicted to precision instruments anyway:
microscopes, survey equipment, big telescopes ... .
