UK Phone Voice Scrambler No. 6A → ← Overview
Telephone scrambler · 1940
- this page is a stub
Introduced in June 1940, for use on CB/Auto installations.
The unit was housed in a wooden case and operated on 200-250V
AC or DC mains power. It is built around CV1732 valves (tubes),
which are 5-pin triodes designed for signal processing (equivalent
to ML4 and VT90/VT129).

No. 6 was short-lived and was succeeded within months
by the 6A, 6B, 6AA and 6AC versions, as it had several design issues.
The power for
the telephone set was derived from the exchange line current, which
made it a CB-only device,
unsuitable for Local Battery (LB) installations.
Furthermore, as it could be powered from a DC mains source, large
parts of the chassis carried a live voltage, making it potentially
dangerous for service engineers and maintenance personnel.
At present, no image of this version is available.
