Re: Using a Ring Modulator to extend the range of Osc

2002-08-18 by buechlerjoe

The funny thing is, I just tried my A114 Ring Modulator for doubling 
frequency, and it's working just fine. I have the sine wave output 
from an A110 split with an A118 multiple and patched to both of the 
A114's inputs.

I wonder what's the deal with yours?
