SS70A • 4 INTR ODU C TION The Ramsey SS70A is a complete tw o-way speech scram bler/descrambler with suitable inputs and output s fo r sc anner, two-wa y radio, cordless telephone, or tape recorder operation. It is designed to help the user secure total privacy for communicat ions or recorded memos.
SS70A • 5 The audio in put is am plified and f iltered by the IC, then "m ixed" with the carrier to produce both the sum and di fference frequencies. For example, a 500 Hz input mixed with the 3 KHz carr ier will produce signals at both 2500 Hz and 3500 Hz and a 1KHz signal will produce a 2 KHz and 4 KHz result.
SS70A • 6 RAMSEY Learn-As -You-Build KIT ASSEMBLY There are numerous solder connections on the SS70A printed circuit board. Therefore, PLEASE take us seriousl y wh en we say that good soldering is essential to the proper operation of y our scrambler!
