because the output voltage of a supply having
poor regulation, may exceed the maximum
voltage rating of the transistors in the equip
ment being tested. A battery eliminator with
poor ac filtering will create a false indication
of poor filtering in the equipment being tested.
d. The direction tinder set must be turned
off before switching the battery eliminator on
or off, The transient voltages developed by
switching the battery eliminator on and off,
may exceed the "punch-through" rating of
transistor. Also, make certain that either a
600-ohm dummy load or a normal load (such
as a headset) is connected to the direction
finder set audio output before applying power.
