PDI Communications, Inc. PDI-60AP is a professional quality, user friendly, high performance TV signal processor designed primarily for CATV headend operation. Rock solid PLL controlled tuning by advanced microprocessor insures precise UHF, VHF or CATV (STD-HRC) channel access. Careful design of the input achieves a wide dynamic range and a very low noise figure. Input tuning covers the range of 54 to 860MHz with the ability to properly receive CATV channels already offset 12.5 or 25 kHz as in node operation. The agile output ranges from 54 to 860MHz and is controlled by another PLL circuit with 12.5 or 25kHz offsets. Both the input and output channels have non-volatile memories that restore the channels automatically in the event of a power failure. SAW filtering guarantees broadcast quality pictures. A standby oscillator provides a CW video carrier level for system pilot AGC if the input drops below a useable level. $825.00
