The Boonton 8210 is a used FM/AM Modulation Meter. The Boonton 8210 is a microprocessor based high performance AM and FM modulation measuring instrument.
The instrument provides automatic tuning and leveling, low residual modulation, true peak detection, a digital display, and self-calibration.
To create modulation standards, the 8210 automatically generates two crystal-controlled frequencies to internally calibrate the FM channel, and two levels, differing by a precise amount, to calibrate the AM channel.
The results are verified mid-range accuracies of 1% of reading for both AM and FM measurements, without the need for expensive external calibration setups.
