8-C-22: Amplifiers

8-22C1: Overcoupling in a RADAR receiver will cause?

Oscillations.

Improved target returns.

Increase the range of the IAGC.

Decrease noise.



8-22C2: The usual intermediate frequency of a shipboard RADAR unit is:

30 or 60 MHz.

455 kHz.

10.7 MHz.

120 MHz.



8-22C3: The I.F. Amplifier bandwidth is:

Wide for short ranges and narrow for long ranges.

Wide for long ranges and narrow for short ranges.

Constant for all ranges.

Adjustable from the control panel.



8-22C4: A logarithmic IF amplifier is preferable to a linear IF amplifier in a RADAR receiver because it:

Has a greater dynamic range.

Has higher gain.

Is more easily aligned.

Has a lower noise figure.



8-22C5: The high-gain IF amplifiers in a RADAR receiver may amplify a 2 microvolt input signal to an output level of 2 volts. This amount of amplification represents a gain of:

120 db.

60 db.

100 db.

1,000 db.



8-22C6: In a RADAR receiver AGC and IAGC can vary between:

20 and 40 db.

10 and 15 db.

30 and 60 db.

5 and 30 db.
