Model 72 Interface
And now for a shameless “product plug.”
Studio Technologies, Inc. manufactures
a nifty product called the Model 72 Level
Meter/Interface. A compact, standalone
unit, it can prove very useful when setting
up, maintaining, and troubleshooting inter-
com circuits. It will give a direct indication
of signal levels at any point in a single- or
dual-channel intercom circuit. Check it out!
