The Drake HCP2550A is a high quality, frequency agile channel processor capable of converting any VHF, UHF, or CATV input signal to any standard output channel between 54 through 550 MHz. Input and output frequency, including output frequency offset, are easily set with front panel push wheel switches. A/V ratio and output controls are also provided along with IF loop-through connections to offer exceptional flexibility.
