The LT-6 Panel aids in the bench testing of VHF Communication and Communication/Navigation equipment. It's a vast improvement over the old LT-5 Panel. The LT-6 Panel has added the ability to use serial control heads, navigation indicators, a speaker on the panel for speaker or phone channels, mike testing, use of the LA cable series harnesses, digital panel meter, and 56 test point jacks. It's almost like owning an LT-5, LA-6, headset tester and more!
The serial control heads of the unit under test can be connected by optional control head cables to the DC-37 Control Buss connection (P4) on the panel face. This connection is documented in detail later in this manual and with this information the customer can custom make cabling to connect their buss simulators to the panel in place of the serial control head. This added feature provides the ability to check those serial controlled 8.33MHz units.
