- Radio Delta International used the Rohde & Schwarz SK080 AM broadcast transmitter for special events.
This transmitter gives us a lot of fun, because of the history and the beautiful appearance.
Rhode & Schwarz SK080 with classic anode/screen modulation, built in 1959. 100% tube-based, 800 Watts RF, sucks 3.4 kVA (one phase!). Radio Delta engineers refurbished this beautiful vintage AM broadcast transmitter. We used this transmitter in the 80’s on shortwave 7325kHz.
The R&S SK080 has a nice internal modulator with 2 x QB3/300 tubes with a brilliant AM modulation. This R&S SK080 transmitter could modulate around 800Watt nom. Many dutch pirates use the smaller R&S SK010 with external modulator, this transmitter can modulate around 130Watt nom.
The R&S SK family was in used by the German Army during 60’s and beginning 70’s. During the 80’s and 90’s this army surplus was sold to handlers. It was in the past rather simple to buy such a gear in Germany and Holland. Later became the R&S SK1 (1 kW max carrier power AM, + USB and LSB ) popular. But there mintage was much much less.

Fantastic.
I think the end valves were visible because when the antenna was poorly coupled, the plates on those valves turned red.
This are not the end valves of the transmitter. You have seen the modulation valves🙏

Good..

Thank you👍
Thought that music sounded familiar. It was released as "Camouflage" by Stan Ridgway here in the UK. Is your dipole pointing our way?
It is an Cover, the dipole is pointed to the UK. On 12.030 you can get a good signaal😃
What is the power output of this transmitter? 400 watts??
800 watts is possible, we used it with 400 - 500 watt carrier
Is it "easy" if you want use that transmitting power just like one speaker with some easy configuration? Then you don't must actually transmit "anything" to others. That idea just pop my head because some metal fences etc start resonate neat radio towers on old days. And how efficient circuit may be if done? Did it need just coil and crystal?
What’s your point? This technic have bring us where we now are in our lives.
