Title: GW GAG808 teardown
Post by: SeanB on September 20, 2014, 12:20:52 pm
Was at the scrapyard, and rescued these 2 GW audio oscillators from the pile. There were other items there, including a nice XY plotter, but it had suffered from "The Claw"

Inside you have a nice function generator, will try later to replace the power cord and see if it works. Should work, seeing no major issues. Interesting frequency adjustment method, using a variable capacitor and the gearbox driving it. Made 30 December 1991, they must have been working overtime at the factory.
